Summary of the contracting process

South Derbyshire District Council commissioned internal and external refurbishment works at the Town Hall, 3 Midland Road, Swadlincote, DE11 0AG. The scope covered restoration of the building frontage, improvements to the quality and accessibility of toilet and kitchen facilities, and re-hanging doors either side of the main hall stage to improve usability. This is a building refurbishment and repair project, including construction work and building-installation maintenance. The work is located in Swadlincote, within South Derbyshire. The council is the public-sector buyer and the requirement was treated as a single package. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to building contractors, refurbishment specialists and property maintenance businesses with the capability to deliver coordinated internal, external and accessibility-related works in a public building.

The procurement is complete and was awarded following a below-threshold open competition. The tender deadline was 6 February 2026 at 17:00, with enquiries closing on 23 January 2026 at 17:00. The contract was awarded to Northdown Property Services (NPS) Ltd on 23 July 2026. The signed contract is active, runs from 23 July 2026 to 21 August 2026, and is valued at £33,995.88 excluding VAT (£40,795.06 including VAT). The original estimated tender value was £50,850 excluding VAT (£61,020 including VAT). Evaluation was based on 60% quality and 40% price. The successful supplier was selected for the refurbishment works package. Electronic submission was allowed, and the procurement used the East Mids Tenders portal for tender responses.

This award demonstrates demand from South Derbyshire District Council for short-duration, below-threshold town-hall refurbishment delivered by a small or medium-sized contractor. A credible future competitor would need practical experience restoring building frontages and carrying out internal alterations in occupied or public-facing premises, including toilet and kitchen improvements, accessibility enhancements and door or stage-area modifications. Strong coordination across multiple trades, reliable programme management and the ability to complete varied building works as one package would be important. The selection requirements also show that suppliers should hold, or be prepared to obtain, £10 million public liability and £10 million employers’ liability insurance. Relevant bidders would need documented health and safety, modern slavery and environmental management policies or systems, alongside evidence of quality delivery and competitive pricing.
