UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Brighton and Hove City Council involves the awarding of a contract for project management and contract administration services under the project entitled "Royal Pavilion Gardens - Project management with Contract Administration." The project, focused on the rejuvenation of Brighton's Royal Estate's gardens, falls under the services category and affects the UKJ21 region. This procurement stage is complete, marked by the award date of 2nd October 2025. It was conducted using a below threshold procurement method, and the contract was awarded to Stace LLP, a small to medium-sized enterprise based in Epping, for a period commencing on 3rd September 2025 and potentially extending to 2029, inclusive of optional renewal terms.

This tender presents a notable business growth opportunity for consultancy firms specialising in project management, particularly those with capabilities in managing heritage or public realm projects. The long duration and value of the contract, amounting to approximately GBP 79,730.40 net, indicate significant scope for ongoing engagement and stability for the supplier. Businesses adept at collaborating with public authorities, like that of Brighton and Hove City Council, and familiar with requirements set by principal project funders such as The National Lottery Heritage Fund, would find themselves well-positioned to compete in similar future tenders.
