This project falls under the construction industry category, relevant to roof works and other special trade construction. The tender period is set to close on 11th June 2021, with contractual works proposed to commence on 12th July 2021 and extend until 11th July 2023. The estimated value of the project is £200,000, with a minimum threshold of £150,000, and it involves a comprehensive refurbishment of historic roofs, requiring substantial technical expertise. This procurement opportunity offers significant potential for businesses, particularly those specialising in construction and roofing services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with experience in flat roofing and restoration works would be well-suited to compete, as the project involves phased refurbishments while ensuring the school remains operational. Companies with expertise in managing work undertaken in sensitive environments, such as educational institutions, may also find this tender appealing. Interested bidders are encouraged to apply via the West Berkshire e-procurement portal for further details on the submission process. ## Notice The existing historic roofs at The Winchcombe School are now beyond their original service life and now leak in various areas. The roofs are asphalt / bitumen finished on a flat concrete slab. One area, the hall, also has a parapet with weir outlets and hoppers etc. Where flat concrete roofs have overhangs and drip details the concrete has failed in places and there is a separate report with proposed repairs. The school has been extended over the years and one unfortunate consequence of this is that a lower-level roof between teaching rooms and ancillary spaces is now within a well (below the main roof) where water can be trapped. It is proposed that this area be revised to have a roof deck at high level reducing the risk of trapped water. New roof lights will also be required in these areas. All existing roofs affected will need to be stripped, new vapour barrier laid, new cut to falls insulation including flat insulation to detailed areas and new bitumen roof finish over. Due to the building being an operational school, some works may be able to be carried out in term time, this would need to be agreed by all stakeholders. The works are to be phased over two years, phase one in 2021/22 and phase two in 2022/2023 Additional information: Please apply via West Berkshire e-procurement portal https://in-tendhost.co.uk/westberks/aspx/Home Is a Recurrent Procurement Type? : No ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/732f6c0c-76e0-4a1e-9a20-e424918b842a | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 20 May 2021 | | Submission deadline | 18 Jun 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 12 Jul 2021 - 11 Jul 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £200,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | WEST BERKSHIRE | | Locality | NEWBURY | | Post town | Reading | | Postcode | RG14 5LD | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ1 Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire | | ITL 3 | TLJ16 Berkshire West | | Local authority | West Berkshire | | Electoral ward | Newbury Central | | Westminster constituency | Newbury | | Delivery location | TLJ South East (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work - 45260000 - Roof works and other special trade construction works ## Release History - 20 May 2021 at 14:54 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/732f6c0c-76e0-4a1e-9a20-e424918b842a - 19 May 2021 at 13:59 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/732f6c0c-76e0-4a1e-9a20-e424918b842a ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/732f6c0c-76e0-4a1e-9a20-e424918b842a 20th May 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://in-tendhost.co.uk/westberks/aspx/ Additional information on how to apply for this contract ## Notice URLs - https://in-tendhost.co.uk/westberks/aspx/Home ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
