Project Overview
This was a 7 year Partnering Project with Brighton & Hove City Council using a PPC2000 contract. A rigorous multi-stage interview and selection procedure resulted in Stonewest being appointed to carry out the pre-contract assessment works, categorising the necessary repairs determined from elevation surveys combined with associated costs.
With technical input from Stonewest, each year the scope of repairs was set at an agreed maximum price with the budget distributed to meet the fabric needs.
