Summary of the contracting process

Kent County Council procured emergency repair works at the Barnfield Park site following a fire. The requirement covers construction work and repair and maintenance services, including the work needed to restore or make safe a site affected by fire. The council is the public-sector buyer and is based at County Hall in Maidstone. The procurement concerns physical works rather than the supply of standalone goods or professional advisory services. It is therefore relevant to contractors able to organise and deliver building repairs, remedial construction and associated maintenance following an emergency incident. The published scope links the requirement to construction work and repair and maintenance services, with activity associated with the site and with Kent County Council’s operational needs.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to GTCI Ltd. The contract is active and was signed on 10 August 2026, for delivery from 10 August 2026 to 10 October 2026. Its value is £155,000 excluding VAT, or £186,000 including VAT. The procurement used a below-threshold route and was divided into one lot, which is complete. The award covers the emergency fire-related repair works, construction work and repair and maintenance services described above. GTCI Ltd was the selected supplier. The available outcome information records the award and contract arrangements, including the contract period and values, but does not set out a separate award date or detailed scoring criteria.

This opportunity indicates demand from Kent County Council for rapid, substantial building repair following a fire, delivered through a below-threshold procurement route. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical construction and building-maintenance capability, with the resources to assess fire-affected premises, make sites safe and complete remedial works within a tightly defined delivery period. Relevant experience in emergency response, site repairs, reinstatement and coordinating multiple trades would strengthen a future response. The awarded supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist contractor rather than only by a major national business. Firms with dependable mobilisation, skilled operatives, appropriate equipment and evidence of completing comparable repair projects would be well placed to compete when this buyer next requires similar work.
