Summary of the contracting process

Bolsover District Council awarded works to improve pre-cast concrete surrounds and lintels across the Bolsover district. The requirement mainly covers two-storey blocks of flats that are council-owned or leasehold, where the council is responsible for the structure. The work is construction and housing improvement activity (CPV 45211100), delivered across the district of Bolsover. The council is the buying organisation and the requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The scope is focused on specialist concrete repair and improvement rather than general building maintenance, with work affecting occupied residential blocks and their structural elements.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 15 September 2026 following a below-threshold open competition. Four bids reached the final stage, including three from SMEs. J B Specialist Refurbishments Limited was awarded the single lot for £450,000 gross. The awarded contract period runs from 30 September 2026 to 29 September 2027, with two possible 12-month extensions, allowing a maximum end date of 29 September 2029. The contract was evaluated on price at 50%, method statement at 10%, resident liaison at 5%, three case studies at 30% and social value at 5%. A contract signature milestone was scheduled for 29 September 2026. Enquiries closed on 25 November 2025 and tenders closed on 4 December 2025.

This award demonstrates demand from Bolsover District Council for specialist structural concrete improvement in residential housing, particularly repair or improvement of pre-cast surrounds and lintels on two-storey blocks. A credible future competitor would need practical experience of similar concrete and building refurbishment works, with methods that address structural integrity, quality control and safe delivery in occupied or leasehold housing. Strong resident liaison arrangements would be important, alongside the ability to present three relevant case studies and a clear method statement. Suppliers should also be able to evidence social value delivery and manage a council works contract of this scale. The award to an SME indicates that suitably capable specialist refurbishment contractors can compete without needing to be a large national construction business.
