Summary of the contracting process

Hedge End Town Council is procuring refurbishment works for Drummond Community Centre, a community facility serving residents in Grange Park and the wider Hedge End area. The project is intended to improve and maintain the building internally and externally, keeping it welcoming and functional for community use. The scope covers building decoration, exterior cleaning and general repair and maintenance services. The work is categorised as building works and is to be delivered at Drummond Community Centre in the Hedge End area of Southampton. This opportunity will suit contractors able to manage a coordinated refurbishment covering both internal finishes and external building maintenance, rather than suppliers offering only a single unrelated service.

The procurement has reached tender: Hedge End Town Council invited offers through an open procedure above the applicable threshold. Bids must be submitted by 19 October 2026 at 12:00 noon. The contract is scheduled to run from 21 December 2026 to 30 September 2027. Its estimated value is between £100,000 and £120,000, inclusive of the stated minimum and maximum estimates, in GBP. The tender concerns one overall requirement rather than separately identified lots. An open site visit is scheduled for 29 September 2026, with attendance available from 8:30am to 4:00pm. The procurement includes technical specifications and evaluation criteria for bidders to review before preparing their offers.

This opportunity is suited to established building and refurbishment contractors with the capacity to deliver a substantial community-facility improvement programme over a prolonged contract period. Relevant capability includes internal and external decorating, cleaning building exteriors, and carrying out varied repairs and maintenance. Contractors should be able to coordinate different workstreams on one occupied or community-facing site, manage workmanship and site activity, and deliver a complete improvement package rather than an isolated task. The requirement is marked as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so it is more likely to suit larger or well-resourced contractors, including firms that can bring together specialist decorating, cleaning and maintenance teams. A site visit provides an opportunity to understand the building and scope before bidding.
