Summary of the contracting process

Falkirk Council procured building works for a dining-area store extension at St Francis Primary School. The scope included internal alterations to create a new store beside the existing dining room and gym hall; construction of an extension with new floor, wall and ceiling finishes and internal decoration; mechanical and electrical installations for the revised layout; and external works to reinstate adjacent ground. This is a small education-estate construction project combining general building, fit-out, mechanical and electrical work, and external reinstatement. Delivery is at St Francis Primary School in the Falkirk Council area. The procurement is classified as construction work (CPV 45000000), and Falkirk Council acted as the buying organisation and central purchasing body.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a single lot and an open procedure, with electronic submission in English; variants were not allowed. Bids closed at 2pm on 8 July 2026, and bids were opened at the same time. The estimated procurement value was £300,000. CK Construction Ltd was selected for the lot, and the resulting contract is valued at £196,893.49. The contract was signed on 20 August 2026 and has active status. The planned contract period was 60 days. Ten bids were received, including nine from SMEs, and all ten were submitted electronically. The contract provides for electronic payment, and bids were required to remain valid for 90 days.

For a construction business that did not win this contract, the award demonstrates demand from Falkirk Council for compact school-building projects delivered through an open, electronic competition. Relevant capability includes managing alterations within or beside an operating education facility, constructing a small extension, coordinating mechanical and electrical installations, completing internal finishes and decoration, and reinstating external ground. A credible competitor would need to bring these disciplines together, control interfaces between building, services and landscaping work, and mobilise sufficient resource to deliver a focused project within a short construction period. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that this type of requirement can suit smaller contractors with appropriate construction management, subcontractor coordination and education-sector site experience.
