Summary of the contracting process

Essex County Council procured the design and build of an external bulge classroom at Kings Road Primary School, together with associated construction works. This is a school-building project within the wider construction sector, covering both design responsibility and physical delivery of the additional classroom accommodation. The work is to be delivered in the East of England. The requirement is for the council as buyer and concerns a single school site rather than a broad programme of unrelated works. Businesses relevant to this opportunity would therefore include contractors able to combine building design and construction delivery for education premises, along with the specialist trades and supply-chain partners needed to complete associated external works.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Re-Gen (UK) Construction Limited on 29 April 2026. The awarded value is £633,365.07 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 29 April 2026 to 14 May 2027. The requirement was procured using a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 30 January 2025 at 12:00 UTC. The published outcome records one active award to the named supplier. The procurement was classified as construction work for school buildings and categorised as works. The tender’s total stated value matches the awarded value.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award indicates demand from Essex County Council for a mid-sized, design-and-build school expansion project delivered through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need the capacity to take responsibility for both design and construction, manage associated external works, and deliver additional classroom accommodation in a live education setting. Relevant strengths would include experience of school-building projects, reliable programme and site management, coordination of multiple trades, and the financial and operational capacity to perform a substantial council contract. The recorded supplier was classified as a large organisation, while the opportunity was marked unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs.
