Summary of the contracting process

Finchley Catholic High School procured replacement of its all-weather sports pitch, a sports-surface project classified under sports-field maintenance services (CPV 77320000). The requirement was for one supplier and concerns replacing the pitch at the school on Woodside Lane, London, N12 8TA. The school is the buyer and intended site of the work. This is a specialist facilities project rather than a general school maintenance requirement: the core work is provision and replacement of an all-weather playing surface. The school’s stated requirement does not set out further technical specifications or ancillary works.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to E.T.C. Sports Surfaces Limited. The award date was 23 September 2026 and the awarded value was £135,633.81. The contract period runs from 30 March 2026 to 1 September 2026. The school used an open procedure. The tender deadline was 29 March 2026. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the requirement was for a single supplier. The recorded category was services. No separate lots are recorded, and no evaluation criteria or detailed eligibility requirements are stated in the available procurement information.

This award shows Finchley Catholic High School buying a single-supplier replacement of an all-weather sports pitch in London, at a scale that calls for a specialist sports-surface contractor rather than a broad facilities provider. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need relevant experience delivering sports-pitch replacement and the practical capacity to complete the work at a school site within a defined project period. The selected supplier, E.T.C. Sports Surfaces Limited, indicates the type of specialist business that won this contract. The procurement was run through an open procedure and was marked as suitable for SMEs, so smaller contractors in the sports-surface market were within the intended supplier pool. The stated requirement does not identify specific accreditations or additional technical qualifications.
