Notice scope excerpt

This Contract Award relates to a two-stage public works contract and confirms that a Pre-construction Services Agreement (PCSA) has been awarded under Construction Framework CF25 [2025/S 000-080063] for the design and build/refurbishment of a Mainstream Secondary and Sixth Form. The contract price and expiry date stated herein solely reflect the estimated amount to be paid to the Contractor under the Early Supplier Involvement (ESI) phase. The contract price and expiry date are subject to confirmation following progression to detailed design and final agreement of the Works under a JCT Design and Build contract.

The excerpt describes the procurement as a whole. It does not establish this supplier’s individual deliverables or lot allocation. This excerpt may be truncated. Source wording about applications or deadlines is historical and must not be read as an invitation to bid now.

Procurement route and comparison checks

For “Ossett Academy and Sixth Form”, distinguish appointment to the framework from a subsequent call-off. Check the relevant lot, call-off mechanism and whether the published amount is a ceiling before estimating accessible work.

  • Buyer match: confirm that requirements from Department for Education are comparable to the buyer, location and service scale you intend to target.
  • Delivery scope: use the excerpt above to identify deliverables, exclusions and technical constraints. Verify each against the complete documents before claiming a capability match.
  • Timing: check the award-specific period above against later contract notices. A missing date is unknown; it is not a renewal signal.

This profile is an independent research aid from Team J8VEST. It is not an endorsement by, or an affiliation with, the named supplier or buyer. The sample is not the supplier’s complete contract portfolio.

Questions for a bid or market team

  • Which published requirements and lots led to Wates Construction being named?
  • What evidence would a supplier need for comparable UK public procurement?
  • Do later notices change the term, value, scope or status of these awards?

Answer these questions from the complete procurement pack and later notices. Store the source URL, publication date and exact field behind every conclusion. A supplier name in an award does not prove present capacity, customer satisfaction, future demand or revenue attributable to that supplier.

How to interpret this record

The timeline is evidence of published procurement history, not a lead score. Values can describe a lot, ceiling, estimate or whole contract and must not automatically be treated as annual supplier revenue. Framework appointment does not guarantee call-off work.

Check the original tender, lot structure, duration, modifications and termination notices. Compare several awards before calling a pattern repeatable, and label every inference separately from source facts.
