Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East Sussex County Council procured construction works at Uckfield College: replacement of the mobile classroom cladding and flat roof. The requirement covers the classroom external cladding and flat-roof replacement programme, with the works delivered at Uckfield College in East Sussex. The council is the buying organisation and the procurement falls within general construction work. The project concerns a school estate improvement rather than routine facilities management or supply-only work. It would suit contractors able to manage building-envelope refurbishment in an occupied education setting, including the coordination of cladding and roofing activities as one programme. The requirement was treated as a single package of works, covering the college’s mobile classroom rather than a wider county-wide property programme.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. East Sussex County Council used a limited mini-competition under a PCR 2015 framework lot, with no prior call for competition; four bids were recorded. The sole award went to P.H.BECK LIMITED, an SME, and the award is active. The contract value is £225,660 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract was signed on 17 September 2026, and the award was made in 2026. Price was the stated evaluation criterion. The requirement was arranged as one lot, but that lot is recorded as cancelled even though the associated award and contract are active. The works programme could allow the timescales to extend under the stated option.

This award demonstrates demand from East Sussex County Council for a combined school refurbishment package involving mobile-classroom cladding and flat-roof replacement. A credible future competitor would need practical delivery capability across both roofing and cladding, with the capacity to coordinate a planned works programme in a live education environment. Relevant strengths include surveying existing structures, preparing and sequencing external-envelope works, managing access and site safety, protecting school users, and delivering durable weatherproof finishes. The winning supplier was an SME, indicating that the requirement was within the reach of a focused specialist contractor rather than only a major national builder. Suppliers should also be able to compete through the council’s relevant framework route and submit a clear, competitive price for an integrated package.
