Summary of the contracting process

Drayton Parish Council procured structural and civil engineering consultancy services for the reconfiguration, alteration and refurbishment of the King George V Cricket Pavilion at King George V Playing Field, Drayton High Road, Drayton. The work covers modernising and expanding the pavilion to meet current football and cricket standards, while improving accessibility throughout the facility. The appointed consultant was required to provide designs across RIBA Stages 1 to 5, covering the project from initial preparation through to construction-stage design and support. The procurement was managed for the parish council with support from Greyfriars Project Management. Delivery relates to the pavilion and playing field in Drayton, Norfolk. The service category includes both civil engineering consultancy and structural engineering consultancy.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. It comprised one lot. Conisbee Engineers Ltd was awarded the contract on 10 August 2026. The contract was signed on the same date and runs from 10 August 2026 to 12 August 2027. Its value is £17,500 excluding VAT, or £21,000 including VAT. The award covers the full structural and civil engineering consultancy requirement for the pavilion refurbishment. The contract is active. The available outcome shows a single selected supplier and a single contract for the completed procurement. The contracting route was a limited competition rather than an open procedure, so the opportunity demonstrates the council’s use of a targeted process for this below-threshold professional services requirement.

This procurement indicates demand from Drayton Parish Council for an engineering practice able to support community sports-facility refurbishment from early design through construction. A credible future competitor would need both structural and civil engineering capability, with the capacity to deliver coordinated work across RIBA Stages 1 to 5 rather than a single design phase. Relevant experience should include altering and refurbishing existing pavilions or comparable public buildings, designing facilities that support football and cricket use, and incorporating practical accessibility improvements. Suppliers should also be able to work within a targeted, below-threshold competition and provide clear technical input for a parish council project, while coordinating effectively with project-management support and other stakeholders. The completed contract demonstrates a defined requirement for end-to-end consultancy on a small community asset.
