Summary of the contracting process

Kent County Council procured roofing works for Burham CEP School in Burham, Kent. The requirement covers the supply and installation of roofing materials and associated roof works for the school site. It is a construction requirement focused on roofs rather than a general facilities-management service, and falls within the goods category in the procurement record. The contracting authority is Kent County Council, a sub-central public authority serving Kent. The work is tied to one school premises, so relevant suppliers are roofing contractors, building contractors with established roofing capability, and firms able to organise construction delivery in a live education setting. The requirement is identified by CPV code 44112400, covering roofs.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold procedure. It was divided into one lot, covering the full roofing requirement. G A Harper Ltd was selected as supplier, with an active award and contract. The contract was signed on 4 February 2026 and runs from 13 April 2026 to 15 June 2026. Its value is £99,655.86 including tax. The available record does not state an award date separately from the contract signature, or describe the evaluation criteria used to select the supplier. The process therefore provides a clear precedent for the authority’s route to market, contract scale and delivery period for this school roofing requirement, but not the detailed scoring basis behind the award.

This award indicates demand from Kent County Council for a specialist roofing supplier capable of delivering a substantial school roof project as a single package. A credible future competitor would need practical roofing expertise, access to suitable materials, competent site management and the capacity to plan and complete works around the operational needs of an education site. Experience of public-sector or school construction would help demonstrate an understanding of safeguarding, site access, health and safety, coordination with school staff and minimising disruption. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that a business of modest scale can meet this type of requirement. Firms should be able to evidence reliable delivery of comparable roofing works, control quality and programme risks, and manage the full package rather than only supplying individual materials.
