Summary of the contracting process

Southend-on-Sea City Council is procuring conservation and refurbishment works at Southchurch Hall, a Grade I listed building in Southend-on-Sea. The scope includes roof repairs, replacement rainwater goods, window repairs, masonry repairs, cladding, light refurbishment of the male and female toilets, and redecoration. This is a building works requirement covering specialist repairs and associated refurbishment to a heritage asset. The work will be delivered at Southchurch Hall in Southend-on-Sea, Essex. Suppliers should be able to manage several building fabric and finishing workstreams within a coordinated conservation project, while working in accordance with the requirements for a listed building and the JCT Minor Works 2024 Contract.

The procurement has reached tender: the council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It is a single-lot requirement with an estimated value of £360,000 excluding VAT, or £432,000 including VAT. The contract is scheduled to run from 12 October 2026 to 7 December 2026. Enquiries had to be submitted by 28 August 2026 at 23:59, and tenders had to be submitted electronically by 8 September 2026 at 12:00. Electronic tender submission is allowed through the council’s e-tender facility. The award criteria are set out in the Invitation to Tender and project-specific questionnaire. The requirement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This opportunity suits building contractors and conservation specialists with experience repairing and refurbishing historic or listed buildings. Relevant capability includes roof and rainwater goods work, traditional masonry repairs, window repairs, cladding, internal refurbishment, decorating and coordinating multiple trades on a constrained heritage site. Suppliers should be able to deliver the full combination of external fabric repairs and internal works within the specified contract period, while meeting the quality and technical requirements in the Invitation to Tender and project-specific questionnaire. Experience working under the JCT Minor Works 2024 Contract, or the capacity to administer and perform a comparable minor works contract, will be relevant. The stated SME suitability may make the requirement accessible to established smaller contractors and specialist conservation firms.
