UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Kent County Council procured refurbishment works for Lydden Primary School, described as a mobile refurbishment project. The requirement covers the refurbishment of mobile accommodation at the school, under a JCT 2024 contract incorporating Kent County Council amendments. This is a construction and building refurbishment opportunity rather than a supply-only requirement or a professional services commission. The work is delivered in the Kent area, with the contracting authority based at County Hall in Maidstone. The procurement was for one requirement, with the works associated with the school site and the council’s responsibility for delivering the resulting facilities. Businesses operating in school refurbishment, modular or mobile building upgrades, and associated construction trades would find the subject matter relevant.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Kent County Council selected J&B BUILDING CONTRACTORS LIMITED, an SME, for the single refurbishment works requirement. The contract was signed on 27 April 2026 and runs from 27 April 2026 to 6 July 2026. Its value is £218,333.14 excluding VAT, or £261,999.77 including VAT. The procurement was below the applicable threshold, with the specific below-threshold method recorded as unknown. The published evaluation basis is not set out in the available outcome. The award is active and the contract is active, so this is an outcome record rather than an opportunity to submit a bid. The selected supplier is responsible for the mobile refurbishment works at Lydden Primary School.

This award shows Kent County Council purchasing a substantial, time-limited package of school mobile-unit refurbishment from an SME building contractor. A credible future competitor would need practical experience delivering refurbishment works in an occupied or operational education setting, with the organisation and site-management capability to coordinate construction activity safely around school users. Relevant capability may include upgrading or repairing modular accommodation, managing multiple building trades, and delivering a defined works package against a council-amended JCT 2024 contract. Suppliers should also be able to demonstrate reliable programme control, quality assurance, health and safety management, and the financial and operational capacity to complete a project of this scale. Familiarity with Kent County Council’s contractual amendments and public-sector construction requirements would strengthen a supplier’s position when this type of school refurbishment requirement returns.
