Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured works to refurbish the kitchen and adjacent mess room at Shoreham Fire Station. The scope covered the associated appliances, fixtures and fittings, and surface finishes, making this a building refurbishment and commercial kitchen fit-out requirement. The work was for a single location in Shoreham and was bought by the county council as the public-sector authority responsible for the procurement. Businesses operating in construction, refurbishment, kitchen installation, commercial catering equipment, building finishes or related fit-out trades would find the requirement relevant. The work combined building services with the supply and installation of kitchen-related equipment and internal finishes, rather than being a standalone supply of appliances or materials.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. It was treated as a single lot. CONCEPT DESIGN SOLUTIONS SURREY LTD was selected as the supplier, with the award recorded as active. The contract was signed on 27 July 2026 and has a gross value of £111,164.52 including applicable taxes. The contract period runs from 10 August 2026 to 4 September 2026. The procurement was classified as construction work and the contract covers the Shoreham Fire Station kitchen and mess room refurbishment. This outcome shows a short, defined works package procured through a restricted approach rather than an open, high-value competition.

This procurement is useful evidence of West Sussex County Council’s demand for compact, time-limited refurbishment projects combining construction work with commercial kitchen installation. A credible future competitor would need to coordinate removal or alteration of existing kitchen and mess-room elements, installation of appliances and fixtures, and renewal of internal surfaces within a tightly managed delivery programme. Relevant businesses include established refurbishment contractors, commercial kitchen fit-out specialists and construction firms able to manage multiple trades under one contract. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate comparable completed refurbishment work, reliable project management, safe delivery in a fire-station environment and sufficient capacity to provide both installation and finishing works as a single package.
