Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council commissioned construction works at Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee School. The requirement covers repairs to a king post retaining wall, including replacement of its timber infill and associated land drainage. It is a focused property-maintenance and civil-engineering project rather than general school refurbishment. The work sits within construction, special-school construction and drainage construction categories. The council is based in Chichester, and the named site is Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee School. The requirement is for a single, integrated package covering the retaining-wall repair and drainage associated with it, so it is most relevant to contractors able to coordinate structural repair, timber replacement and drainage works as one delivery team.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. West Sussex County Council used a below-threshold limited competition, with one lot. Managing Property Maintenance Ltd was awarded the contract on 21 July 2026. The contract was signed on the same date and is active, running from 21 July 2026 to 1 March 2027. Its value is £69,935.80 excluding VAT, or £83,922.96 including VAT. The award covers the complete retaining-wall and drainage requirement. The published outcome identifies Managing Property Maintenance Ltd as the selected supplier. The procurement was below the relevant threshold and used limited competition rather than an open procedure, making it a targeted route for a defined group of potential contractors.

This award is useful market evidence for contractors working in school property maintenance, retaining-wall repair, timber structural infill and land drainage. A credible competitor for comparable work would need to demonstrate practical experience repairing king post retaining walls, replacing timber infill and installing or reinstating associated drainage. The requirement favours a contractor able to manage construction and drainage activities together, coordinate work on an operational education site and deliver a defined civil-engineering package rather than isolated trade services. Firms with relevant local-authority or education-estate experience, suitable site-management arrangements and the capacity to undertake small-to-medium construction repairs would be well placed when assessing similar requirements from this council.
