UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Canterbury City Council embarked on a procurement process to refurbish the Westmead Recreation Ground MUGA in Whitstable. This contract was part of a tendering initiative identified as DN767948 and commenced in June 2025, concluding by the end of July 2025, with ETC Sports Surfaces Ltd awarded the contract valued at approximately £29,910. Initially operational between 7th July and 1st August 2025, the contract involved landscaping work categorized under sports grounds within the UKJ4 region. However, the process experienced a termination documented on 4th December 2025 due to completion of the contract terms, signalling the end of the procurement stage.

The refurbishment of recreational grounds presents several opportunities for landscape contractors, sports facilities specialists, and companies with expertise in outdoor facility upgrades. This tender was particularly beneficial for SMEs like ETC Sports Surfaces Ltd who managed to capitalise on this opportunity. Businesses specialising in landscaping work for sports and recreational areas would find such tenders well-suited to their services, given the specific nature of the project and its alignment with public authority needs. Engaging in similar procurements can enhance the growth prospects of these enterprises, allowing them to expand their portfolios and establish strong connections within the public sector.
