Summary of the contracting process

Medway Council procured works to demolish The Brook six-storey multi-storey car park in Chatham. The scope covers demolition of the existing structure, removal or diversion of associated services, and waterproofing and making good of the remaining structures. This is a construction and demolition requirement, including site preparation, clearance and earthmoving activities. The work is for the council’s car park infrastructure and involves managing demolition alongside protection and repair of structures that remain. It is therefore relevant to demolition contractors, principal contractors and construction businesses with the equipment, specialist teams and supply-chain capability to undertake structural demolition and associated enabling and reinstatement works in the Medway area.

The procurement is complete and was run as a below-threshold open competition. The tender deadline and enquiry deadline were 17 April 2026 at 5pm. Evaluation weighted quality at 60%, price at 35% and social value at 5%; the opportunity was identified as suitable for SMEs. M & M Demolition Co. Ltd was awarded the contract, which was signed on 1 July 2026. The contract is valued at £1,285,500 excluding VAT, or £1,542,600 including VAT. Its stated period runs from 6 July to 18 December 2026, with one optional six-month extension available, giving a maximum end date of 30 June 2027. The contract is active.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Medway Council for substantial structural demolition rather than a standalone clearance service. A credible future competitor would need proven capability in demolishing multi-storey buildings, controlling risks around live or retained structures, and coordinating service removals and diversions. It would also need to deliver waterproofing and making good to the structures left after demolition, with suitable plant, competent site management and reliable specialist subcontractors where required. The evaluation shows that technical quality carries considerably more weight than price, while social value also affects the outcome. SME suitability indicates that a focused demolition or construction business, or a capable consortium, can be well placed if it can evidence relevant experience, robust delivery methods and community-value commitments.
