Summary of the contracting process

Colchester City Council commissioned building works to re-cover various single-storey flat roofs at flats and maisonettes across the Colchester District. The scope includes roofs to porches, bay windows and outbuildings, covering both replacement roof coverings and associated roof repair work. The main category is roof-covering work, with related requirements for roofing and roof repairs. Colchester Borough Homes acted on behalf of the council in commissioning the contractor. Delivery is within the Colchester District, in the East of England. The intended form of contract was the JCT Intermediate Building Contract 2016 edition. This is a housing maintenance and improvement requirement suited to contractors able to work across multiple residential properties and manage access and delivery at occupied flats and maisonettes.

The procurement has been completed following an open procedure. Bids closed on 26 June 2026, and Highview Group Ltd was awarded the contract on 27 July 2026. The awarded value is £128,000. The contract period runs from 3 August 2026 to 6 November 2026, with the works required to take no longer than 14 weeks. The requirement was evaluated through the tender process, with bidders required to provide their proposed works timeline. The award is active and covers the full roofing works requirement rather than separately identified lots. The opportunity was classified as works and was identified as suitable for voluntary, community and social enterprises, while being marked as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This award shows established demand from Colchester City Council for a substantial programme of flat-roof renewal across residential housing. A credible future supplier would need practical expertise in re-covering single-storey flat roofs, including porches, bay windows and outbuildings, together with the ability to coordinate work across multiple flats and maisonettes in the Colchester District. Experience of residential access, tenant-facing delivery, roof repairs and safe working around occupied properties would be relevant. Suppliers should also be able to plan and deliver a tightly managed programme within the required maximum duration and work under the JCT Intermediate Building Contract 2016 edition. The award indicates that a larger contractor was selected, although voluntary, community and social enterprises were considered suitable for this type of requirement.
