## Summary

Thurrock Council is in the planning stage of a procurement process for a principal contractor to carry out expansion works at Treetops Free School in Grays, United Kingdom. The project falls under the industry category of construction work and is planned to commence in early 2027, with an expected completion date by the end of the same year. Interested parties should note that this is a preliminary notice announcing potential future opportunities, with a more detailed notice expected to be communicated by 1st September 2026.

This procurement presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in construction, particularly those experienced in educational infrastructure projects. While the development represents a future planned tender, businesses can anticipate and prepare for the official call, positioning themselves strategically to compete for a significant public sector project. Enterprises with capabilities in large-scale construction and those able to demonstrate prior successful project delivery in similar sectors will be particularly well-suited to consider this upcoming opportunity. Engaging with this procurement process could provide valuable experience and a reputable partnership with a public authority such as Thurrock Council.
