UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East Sussex County Council commissioned construction works for a new extension at Herstmonceux Church of England School. The project is funded through section 106 monies and is intended to improve safeguarding, create a new school entrance and waiting area, and make internal modifications. The requirement is school-building construction rather than a general building maintenance service. The work is at Herstmonceux, East Sussex.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Harrity Building and Construction Limited. The council used a below-threshold limited competition. The procurement was divided into one lot, covering the extension and associated modifications. The contract was signed on 30 September 2026, with a contract period from 1 October to 11 December 2026. Its value is £376,574.07 excluding VAT (£451,888.88 including VAT). The award records the construction works and identifies the successful supplier; no evaluation criteria are stated in the available procurement details.

This award shows East Sussex County Council’s demand for school construction work that combines building an extension with safeguarding improvements and changes to entrances, waiting areas and internal layouts. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to demonstrate the capacity and experience to deliver construction within an occupied or operational school environment, with careful attention to safeguarding and managing disruption to pupils and staff. The selected supplier is a building and construction contractor, indicating that the council procured the work as a construction project rather than as separate specialist services. The route used was a limited competition below the applicable threshold, so suppliers seeking comparable council work should be prepared to compete through a restricted supplier process.
