Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Kent Housing Association commissioned Employers Agent and Clerk of Works services for its School Lane Phase 2 development. The requirement covers construction supervision and construction consultancy, including overseeing delivery of the development and acting for the employer during the works. The service is delivered in Sevenoaks, Kent, for the housing association’s scheme. It is a professional services requirement rather than a construction contract: the appointed provider supports the client’s project management, contract administration and monitoring of construction quality and progress. The procurement is categorised as services and is relevant to construction consultants, employers’ agents, clerk of works practices and firms providing independent site inspection or construction monitoring services.

This procurement has been completed and awarded. West Kent Housing Association used a selective direct-award call-off from the National Framework Partnership’s Clerk of Works Framework. The tender deadline was 26 June 2026 at 4pm, and the contract was awarded to The Lawson Partnership Limited on 14 July 2026. The awarded value is £90,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 16 July 2026 to 15 July 2030. The award is active. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The recorded requirement covers Employers Agent and Clerk of Works services, with construction supervision and consultancy classifications. The published information does not set out separate lots or a detailed scoring breakdown.

The award demonstrates an established requirement from West Kent Housing Association for combined Employers Agent and Clerk of Works support on a housing development. A credible future supplier would need practical experience of construction supervision, site inspection, quality and progress monitoring, and the client-side administration of development projects. Employers’ agent capability would also be important, including coordinating project information, advising the housing association and managing the employer’s interests through delivery. The requirement is suited to an SME-sized professional practice, so smaller construction consultancies with suitably experienced personnel may be competitive when this type of service is next sourced. Access to the relevant framework route would be commercially important, as the buyer used a framework call-off rather than an open standalone tender.
