## Summary

The procurement process conducted by East Sussex County Council involves a direct award for "Road Construction Supervision" services, which falls under the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services category. This process is situated in Lewes, United Kingdom, in the UKJ22 region. The procurement was conducted without competition, classified as "below threshold", with the contract set to begin on 30th June 2026 and end on 24th December 2026. The tender stage has concluded, with the award status pending, and a signature date scheduled for 30th June 2026. The contract aims to appoint a temporary member of staff urgently to maintain service continuity while a permanent resource is identified.

Despite being a direct award, this contract presents growth opportunities at a value of £110,000, especially for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) like the supplier, Waterman Aspen Limited, which is a Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprise (VCSE). The nature of the contract indicates that businesses providing architectural, engineering, and construction-related services, with the ability to quickly mobilise skilled personnel, would find this contract beneficial. Furthermore, enterprises situated within the United Kingdom, particularly those familiar with government contracts and urgent service delivery requirements, would be well-suited to such opportunities.

## Notice

A direct Award to appointing another temporary member of staff until a permanent one is found. Given the urgency to maintain service continuity, further informal market testing indicated limited availability of appropriately skilled interim resource able to mobilise immediately.
