## Summary

The procurement process initiated by St Helens Council involves the refurbishment of Thatto Heath Primary School to enhance SEND provision within the UKD7 region, specifically in St Helens, United Kingdom. The procurement was conducted through an open competition, below threshold, inviting tenders from interested parties. The tender phase, tagged as active on 3rd June 2025, accepted submissions exclusively via The Chest's electronic platform until 24th June 2025. The project encompassed both building construction and refurbishment work, with a budget range of £190,000 to £228,000. Significant dates included the enquiry period’s end on 20th June 2025 and an intended contract period from 21st July to 29th August 2025.

This tender represents substantial growth opportunities for SMEs involved in the construction industry, specifically those skilled in refurbishment projects. Firms with experience in handling educational infrastructure could leverage this opportunity to build a reputation within the public sector, owing to the priority given to cost (65%) and quality (35%) evaluations. The requirement that businesses have a local presence in the Merseyside area enhances regional development and allows smaller enterprises to compete effectively. Given the past award to LINK CONTRACTING SERVICES LIMITED for similar works, there exists a precedent that demonstrates the council's willingness to support competent SMEs in the area.
