Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East Sussex County Council procured roofing works at Heathfield Community College. The requirement is classified as construction work and concerns the school’s roof. The work was arranged for the council as the public-sector buyer, with delivery at Heathfield Community College. The procurement covered one roofing requirement under a wider framework arrangement. This is a building works opportunity rather than a supply-only or consultancy contract, so it is relevant to roofing contractors and construction firms able to carry out commercial or public-sector roof works. The selected supplier, Clarke Roofing (Southern) Limited, is based in Hailsham and is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The buyer is East Sussex County Council, a regional or local authority.

The procurement has been completed and an active award was made to Clarke Roofing (Southern) Limited. The procedure was a limited mini-competition under a PCR2015 Framework lot, run without prior publication of a call for competition. Bids were evaluated on price. Five bids were received, all from SMEs and all electronically. The contract was signed on 26 May 2026 for £286,234. The single lot is recorded as cancelled, while the related award and contract are active, so the published outcome identifies Clarke Roofing (Southern) Limited as the appointed supplier despite the lot status. The procurement allowed for the works programme to be extended if timescales slipped. The contract period is not stated in the available outcome.

This procurement demonstrates established demand for substantial school roofing works from East Sussex County Council and shows that the buyer uses a framework mini-competition route for this type of requirement. A credible competitor for comparable work would need proven roofing and construction capability, the capacity to deliver works at a school site, and the commercial discipline to compete primarily on price. Access to a relevant PCR2015 Framework lot would be important for reaching the same route to market. The result also shows that SMEs can compete successfully: all five recorded bids came from SMEs, and the selected supplier is itself an SME. Roofing contractors seeking similar council work should therefore be able to evidence relevant delivery experience, reliable programme management and competitive pricing.
