UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council commissioned building works at Chestnuts Day Centre in West Sussex. The requirement covers upgrading Velux windows, soffits, fascias and rainwater goods across the site. This is a construction and refurbishment opportunity focused on the external fabric and roof-related elements of an existing day centre. The council is the public-sector buyer and the work is associated with its property in the county. The scope is suited to contractors able to survey, supply and install roof windows and associated external building components, together with soffits, fascias and rainwater systems. Businesses with relevant building maintenance, refurbishment or small construction capabilities would find the requirement most closely aligned to their services.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. There was one lot. Falcon Homes (Sussex) Ltd was awarded the works, and the contract is active. The contract was signed on 28 July 2026, with a period running from 28 July 2026 to 18 September 2027. Its value is £94,903 excluding VAT, or £113,883.60 including VAT. The procurement was evaluated as a works requirement under the limited competition route. The award covers the complete Chestnuts Day Centre upgrade scope: Velux windows, soffits, fascias and rainwater goods across the site. The selected supplier is a Chichester-based small or medium-sized enterprise.

This procurement demonstrates a defined requirement from West Sussex County Council for external building upgrades at a public day centre, delivered through a below-threshold limited competition. A credible future competitor would need practical experience in refurbishment or building maintenance, particularly installing or replacing Velux windows and completing associated roofline and rainwater works. Capability should extend across soffits, fascias and rainwater goods rather than a single specialist element, since the requirement combines these activities across one site. The award to Falcon Homes (Sussex) Ltd, identified as an SME, indicates that the scale and route can suit smaller construction businesses as well as larger contractors. Local knowledge of West Sussex public-sector property work may also support competitiveness when demonstrating delivery capability.
