Summary of the contracting process

Bishops Cleeves Parish Council is procuring the design and construction of an artificial, full-size 3G football pitch. This is a works contract combining professional design with the physical construction of an all-weather sports facility. The project is intended to provide a full-size football playing surface suitable for use in changing weather conditions, with the detailed design and build delivered as one requirement. The work is associated with Bishop’s Cleeve, near Cheltenham, where the parish council is based and where the pitch is to be delivered. The opportunity suits contractors able to manage both the design and construction elements of an artificial sports pitch project, rather than suppliers offering only general construction materials or standalone consultancy.

The procurement has reached tender: the council invited offers through an open procedure above the applicable threshold. The tender deadline was 28 August 2026 at 3pm. The contract period runs from 1 May 2027 to 31 August 2027. Its estimated value is between £750,000 and £1,000,000, in pounds sterling. The procurement is classified as construction, engineering, architectural and inspection work, with the main category being works. Tender information includes terms and conditions, a planning statement and application form, an ecological impact assessment, and transport information. The tender description records that the submission date was extended to 28 August 2026 at 3pm. Small and medium-sized enterprises are identified as suitable participants.

This opportunity is best suited to an established sports construction contractor or a design-and-build team with experience delivering artificial 3G football pitches and other all-weather playing surfaces. Bidders should be able to take responsibility for the full project lifecycle, including design development, construction planning, site delivery and coordination of specialist technical work. The supporting information covers planning, ecology and transport, so relevant experience of managing these interfaces and producing or responding to associated technical information will be useful. The requirement may suit small and medium-sized enterprises, particularly firms with sufficient delivery capacity to complete a full-size pitch within the specified contract period. Main contractors with reliable specialist supply-chain partners may also be well placed to compete.
