Summary of the contracting process

East Suffolk Council procured building works to refurbish and upgrade 2 Woodend Cottages, a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Stoven. The scope included capital upgrades, internal remodelling and demolition of the rear extension. The property forms part of the council’s housing revenue account stock and was vacant; the purpose of the works was to return it to use. This is a housing refurbishment and construction requirement, including construction work for houses (CPV 45211100 and 45211300). The buyer is East Suffolk Council, based in Woodbridge. The awarded work relates to the council’s housing stock in the East Suffolk area, with the property itself located in Stoven. The requirement was treated as works rather than goods or services.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a below-threshold open competition. Five bids reached the final stage, all from SMEs. Tenders were due by 28 May 2026. The sole lot was evaluated on 70% price and 30% quality, with quality assessed against sub-criteria in the tender documents. East Suffolk Council awarded the contract to East Rising Ltd on 4 September 2026 for £87,974.96 gross. The contract was signed on 5 September 2026 and runs from 6 September to 6 December 2026. The associated award period was stated as 8 September to 6 December 2026. The published outcome records the award as active and the contract as active.

This procurement shows a small, defined housing refurbishment requirement for an East Suffolk Council property, delivered by an SME through an open below-threshold competition. A credible future competitor would need experience and qualifications in residential refurbishment, capital upgrades and internal remodelling, together with the ability to demolish a rear extension safely and complete house construction or major repair work. The evaluation placed greater emphasis on price than quality, so suppliers would need to control costs while presenting a clear, high-quality delivery approach. Relevant businesses include building contractors experienced in bringing vacant council housing back into use, particularly those able to manage several trades and deliver a complete refurbishment rather than an isolated specialist package.
