## Summary

Kent County Council has recently completed a procurement process for the management of defects and latent defects at Whitfield Aspen School, located in the UK region of UKJ. The tender, classified under the Works category, fell within a construction consultancy services framework agreement specifically for infrastructure. Initiated under the legal basis of UKPGA 2023/54, the procurement process was conducted using a below-threshold method. The contract was awarded to Betteridge & Milsom, a small to medium-sized enterprise (SME), and is set to run from 8th May 2025 to 9th September 2026, with a possible extension until the end of December 2026 in the event of unforeseen delays.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses operating in construction project management and consulting, particularly those that specialise in managing building defects. Companies that have prior experience with framework agreements and are capable of handling below-threshold procurement can benefit from engaging with such public contracts. It is well-suited for SMEs looking to expand their portfolio within the public authority sector, given the involvement of a sub-central government entity like Kent County Council. As the contract has a renewal option, it offers a potential for sustained engagement and business growth.
