Summary of the contracting process

Brighton and Hove City Council procured building works for a two-storey side extension at 134 Vale Avenue, Brighton, BN1 8YF. The scope includes associated internal and external works, covering the construction and finishing activities needed to extend and adapt the property. This is a works contract, classified under building construction work. Delivery is at the Vale Avenue property in Brighton. The council is the buying organisation and the requirement is specific to its property rather than a general construction framework. Businesses suited to this opportunity would be building contractors able to manage a residential or similar property extension, coordinate structural and building work, and complete the related internal and external elements as one project.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to BCS ROBERTSON LTD. It used a below-threshold limited competition, with quotations requested from suitably qualified suppliers. There was one completed lot. The tender described an initial period of approximately 20 weeks and a maximum full-term value of £175,000 excluding VAT. The contract was signed on 15 July 2026 and runs from 20 July 2026 to 31 December 2026. The awarded contract value is £174,807 excluding VAT, or £218,000 including VAT. The contract is active. The published outcome identifies BCS ROBERTSON LTD as the supplier for the building construction works.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Brighton and Hove City Council for small, defined property-extension projects delivered through a limited competition rather than an open procedure. BCS ROBERTSON LTD, an SME, was selected, indicating that a smaller construction business can be suitable for this type and scale of council work. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need practical experience delivering two-storey extensions, with the capability to coordinate structural construction alongside internal alterations and external works. It would also need to manage the full building package at a single occupied or operational property, provide suitably qualified personnel, and demonstrate reliable project delivery, pricing and quality control for public-sector work.
