UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Horsham District Council procured construction works to reconfigure and upgrade Newmans Garden Car Park in Steyning, West Sussex. The requirement covered all works described in the project specification and was structured as a single contract rather than separate packages. Delivery is at Newmans Garden Car Park, BN44 3RN. This is a public-sector civil engineering and construction opportunity for contractors involved in car park redevelopment, reconfiguration and associated upgrade works. The council is the buyer and contracting authority. The procurement formed part of the council’s local infrastructure and facilities requirements, with the appointed contractor responsible for delivering the complete scope at the specified car park site.

The procurement is complete and was awarded by Horsham District Council on 17 August 2026 following a below-threshold limited competition using the council’s Closed Request for Quotation procedure. Three bids were received, including three from SMEs. C J Thorne & Co Ltd was awarded the single contract. The award value is £137,394.67 excluding VAT, or £164,872 including VAT. The contract period runs from 31 August 2026 to 9 November 2026, covering ten weeks of works, and the contract is to be executed as a deed. A contract signature milestone was scheduled for 31 August 2026. The award is active and the associated tender status is complete.

This award demonstrates demand from Horsham District Council for a construction contractor capable of delivering a complete car park reconfiguration and upgrade package at a district-council site. The successful market profile is a construction or civil engineering SME able to take responsibility for an integrated works specification, organise delivery on an operational public-site project and complete a short, defined programme. Three suppliers reached the final stage, all of them SMEs, indicating that the requirement was accessible to specialist smaller contractors rather than limited to major national firms. Businesses with relevant car park, highway, paving, drainage, surfacing or related construction experience would have a clear basis for assessing their fit when comparable council requirements return.
