UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East Suffolk Council is currently in the tender stage for the refurbishment of the Romany Lane ablution blocks located at a travellers site in Kessingland. The project involves upgrading 16 ablution blocks and improvements to day rooms and associated bathroom and WC facilities, excluding electrical work and window/door replacements. The total contract value is £456,000, with the procurement method being an open competition below the threshold. Interested parties must submit tenders through the In-Tend platform by 12th August 2026, with the enquiry period closing on 29th July 2026. The refurbishment is set to commence on 7th September 2026 and conclude by the end of February 2027.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in building refurbishment and maintenance services. With 60% of the selection criteria based on quality and 40% on price, companies with a proven track record in delivering high-quality refurbishment projects will have a competitive edge. The project not only offers a significant contract value but also allows for the establishment of a business relationship with East Suffolk Council, a sub-central government authority. Small to medium-sized enterprises in the construction and refurbishment sector, especially those adept in working on residential or temporary accommodation spaces, may find this opportunity ideal for business growth and market expansion.
