In plain English

West Northamptonshire Council wants a contractor to build a new two-storey teaching block, with an additional parking area and related work, in the grounds of Fairfield School. The works are expected to take around 12 to 18 months, with a pre-tender estimate of £3,000,000 to £3,500,000 for the core items.

What the buyer wants

• Build the core items: a new two-storey teaching block, parking area and associated works within the school grounds (optional items may be bought later, subject to budget). • Show a good safety record and explain how the project will be managed safely from start to finish, assessed through the quality questionnaire. • Be able to act as Principal Contractor under the CDM Regulations 2015.

Requirements

What could rule a small business out (our reading of the notice, written with AI): The most likely barriers for a small business are the minimum annual turnover of £3,000,000, the requirement to have a substantive business operation within Northampton or the listed reserved counties, and the ability to take on the Principal Contractor role under the CDM Regulations 2015.
