## Summary

The Department for Education has concluded the procurement process for the main construction works at Cardinal Newman Catholic School. This construction project, classified under CPV code 45000000, covers multiple regions including North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, and South West in the United Kingdom. The status of the procurement is "complete," with BAM Construction Ltd being awarded the contract valued at £48,358,462.04. The procurement method was selective, involving a call-off from a framework agreement. Key dates include the tender period ending on 30th January 2025, the contract starting on 6th February 2025, and finishing on 3rd April 2028.

This tender offers significant opportunities for large construction firms experienced in educational infrastructure projects. The sizeable contract value and extensive regional coverage make it an attractive venture for established businesses aiming to expand their portfolio in the public sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) might find fewer opportunities here due to the scale and complexity of the project. However, companies within the construction and project management services able to handle substantial contracts will find this project a promising opportunity for business growth.
