The procurement method employed was an open, competitive flexible procedure, with the tender reaching its award stage on 5th May 2026. Mears Limited, a large-scale supplier headquartered in Gloucester, has been awarded the contract valued at £290,029,131. The contract period is scheduled to start on 1st November 2026 and will run until 31st October 2031, with an option for a further five-year extension. The procurement focused on the construction work industry, identified under CPV code 45000000, and has a projected contract sign-off milestone scheduled for 18th May 2026. This contract offers significant opportunities for businesses specializing in construction and maintenance services, particularly those capable of handling comprehensive building projects. With a total of six bids submitted, large-scale enterprises that have the resources to manage extensive works will find this contract beneficial for expanding their portfolio and establishing government partnerships. As the procurement was conducted using an open method, it illustrates the possibility of mid-size to large firms leveraging the competitive yet flexible tendering procedures to enter or expand within public sector markets, especially by focusing on quality and pricing strategies aligned with tender requirements. ## Notice The Authority's requirement under this Contract is for a single Main Contractor to provide all reactive repairs, planning maintenance, voids works and general building works.
