UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Kent County Council procured external refurbishment works at Greenfields Primary School for four prefabricated classroom blocks. The scope covers renewing the roofs, replacing canopy coverings and rainwater goods, carrying out external repairs and redecorating the blocks, together with associated enabling works. This is a building refurbishment and maintenance requirement rather than a supply-only contract or a professional consultancy service. The work is to be delivered in the United Kingdom, at the school site identified in the procurement title. It may suit contractors experienced in refurbishing prefabricated or modular buildings, particularly where several building elements must be coordinated as one package and works need to be carried out in an education environment.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. There was one completed lot. Kent County Council awarded the works to Russell Trew Limited on 22 July 2026. The award value was £330,698.04 excluding VAT, or £396,837.64 including VAT. The contract was signed on 22 July 2026 and ran from 22 July 2026 to 19 August 2026. The selected supplier remains recorded as active on the award and contract. The requirement was evaluated through the limited-competition route; the available outcome confirms the successful supplier but does not publish detailed quality or price weightings. This procurement therefore provides a clear example of the council’s route for a below-threshold school refurbishment package.

This award demonstrates demand from Kent County Council for a single contractor able to manage coordinated refurbishment of multiple prefabricated classroom blocks. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical experience in roof renewal, canopy replacement, rainwater systems, external building repairs and redecoration, alongside the capacity to deliver associated enabling works. The requirement favours firms that can take responsibility for a broad external-work package rather than narrowly specialising in one trade. Experience working around schools or other occupied public buildings would help demonstrate safe planning, site coordination and control of disruption. Russell Trew Limited is recorded as an SME, indicating that a smaller building contractor with the necessary delivery capability can compete through the council’s limited-competition route.
