## Summary

Milton Keynes City Council announced a procurement exercise for refurbishment works at two residential children's homes located at 8 Barbara Mews in Neathhill and 68/69 Quantock Crescent in the Emerson Valley area of Milton Keynes. The tender process was initiated with an open competition, aimed to secure a provider for the refurbishment works, expected to last 4 weeks starting from 12 January 2026 to 9 February 2026. The competition was set below the threshold, with the tender submission deadline concluding on 21 November 2025 and the enquiry period ending on 11 November 2025. This procurement falls under the category of 'works' and involves a gross budget of £360,000. However, the tender process was cancelled on 19 March 2026 due to significant changes in the scope of works identified during an internal review. A new procurement exercise is anticipated to commence once the revised scope is finalised.

This opportunity initially offered the chance for construction and refurbishment businesses to engage with a public sector client in Milton Keynes, a locale with strategic growth potential. Successful bidders would benefit from gaining a foothold in public sector works, enhancing their portfolio with projects funded by local government. Companies specialising in refurbishment and overhaul works with a proven track record in similar categories could have found this tender particularly appealing. There remains a future opportunity for these firms to compete once the revised procurement process is initiated, encouraging businesses to stay assuredly informed and prepared for upcoming tenders by Milton Keynes City Council.
