This is a construction works requirement, covering delivery of the new-build facility rather than a supply-only or consultancy service. The named buying organisation is the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames, based at Guildhall 2 in Kingston upon Thames. The recorded delivery area is England, with the specific project site in Surbiton. The requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so it is relevant to construction businesses with the resources and operational capability to act as principal contractor on a public-sector care-home development. The procurement has been awarded following a restricted procedure, using a selective procurement method. The tender closed on 13 May 2025 at 12:00. The contract was awarded on 11 July 2025 to Ermine Construction Services Ltd for £1,600,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 22 July 2025 to 30 June 2027. The procurement’s estimated value range was £1,330,546.09 to £1,600,000 GBP. The tender is recorded as complete and the award is active. The award covers the full principal-contractor requirement for the new children’s care home, with one supplier identified. Evaluation was carried out through the restricted procedure, under which selected candidates were invited to submit bids. For a business that did not win this contract, the award provides a clear example of the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames buying substantial new-build construction through a restricted procedure. Suppliers likely to be well placed for a future requirement of this kind are principal contractors experienced in delivering two-storey public or residential buildings, particularly care environments where construction quality, coordination and reliable completion are important. An SME scale is demonstrably viable for this buyer’s requirement, so smaller established contractors with suitable in-house management, site delivery and subcontractor coordination capability should consider the opportunity relevant. Evidence of completed comparable developments, strong programme control, and the capacity to manage a full principal-contractor role at the Surbiton site would help a competitor present a credible offer when similar work returns to market. ## Notice The project comprises the construction of a new build two-storey children's care home located at 17-19 Chamberlain Way, Surbiton, Surrey, KT6 6JH. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/1e39bb88-535d-47f9-9d03-54105256d847 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Restricted procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 11 Aug 2026 | | Submission deadline | 13 May 2025 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 11 Jul 2025 | | Contract period | 22 Jul 2025 - 30 Jun 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,600,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £1,600,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | The Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames | | Locality | KINGSTON UPON THAMES | | Postcode area | Kingston upon Thames | | Postcode | KT1 1EU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI6 Outer London - South | | ITL 3 | TLI63 Merton, Kingston upon Thames and Sutton | | Local authority | Kingston upon Thames | | Electoral ward | Kingston Town | | Westminster constituency | Kingston and Surbiton | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | Ermine Construction Services Ltd | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work ## Release History - 11 Aug 2026 at 15:19 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/1e39bb88-535d-47f9-9d03-54105256d847 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/1e39bb88-535d-47f9-9d03-54105256d847 11th August 2026 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.kingston.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
