## Summary

FIRST GREATER WESTERN LIMITED is planning a procurement process for the hire of modular buildings to be used at the GWR Engineering Depot in St Phillips Marsh. This tender, which is currently in the planning stage, involves replacing existing modular buildings used as classrooms, offices, canteens, and driver simulators. The procurement method deployed is an open procedure, targeting the main category of goods within the utilities special regime. The procurement notice was published on 9th December 2025, and the tender period is set to close on 20th February 2026, with enquiries closing a week earlier on 13th February 2026. This procurement specifically addresses the region of UKK in the United Kingdom and adheres to the legal basis outlined by the UKPGA 2023/54.

This procurement presents ample growth opportunities for businesses involved in the production and rental of modular and portable buildings, particularly those with capabilities to meet the high-quality and technical specifications set forth in the award criteria. The contract period extends from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2031, with potential yearly renewals until 2036, offering long-term collaboration potential. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are especially well-positioned to compete, as the tender explicitly allows their participation and offers payment terms of 30 days, fostering an encouraging business environment for competitive bids. With price, technical expertise, and compliance with contract terms being the weighted award criteria, businesses specialising in modular construction and those experienced in fulfilling large-scale infrastructure projects would find this tender particularly conducive to their growth strategies.
