Summary of the contracting process

East Sussex County Council procured construction works for the Bexhill Wellbeing Centre: external repairs and replacement windows. The requirement covers the building’s external fabric and windows, with the works intended to maintain or improve the centre’s condition and usability. Delivery is associated with Bexhill in East Sussex. This is a works contract rather than a supply-only opportunity, so relevant businesses are building contractors with the ability to manage and deliver repairs and window replacement as a coordinated programme. The buying organisation is the local authority responsible for the procurement and the related public facility. The requirement was treated as construction work under the applicable procurement classification.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. East Sussex County Council selected George Stone Limited, an SME based in Battle. The contract was signed on 4 June 2026 for £57,953. The council used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, running a mini-competition under a PCR Works Framework lot. Bids were evaluated on price alone. Three electronic bids were received, all from SMEs. The works were treated as a single requirement, with an option allowing the programme timescales to be extended. The tender reached complete status, and the award is recorded as active.

This procurement shows demand from East Sussex County Council for planned external building repairs and window replacement at a public wellbeing facility. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need practical construction capability covering both external repair work and window replacement, with enough coordination and delivery capacity to manage a programme rather than an isolated task. The successful supplier was an SME, and all three bids came from SMEs, indicating that the requirement was accessible to established smaller contractors as well as larger firms. Because price was the sole stated evaluation basis, bidders would also need disciplined estimating, competitive supply-chain costs and reliable programme planning.
