Summary of the contracting process

Ashfield District Council commissioned design, supply and installation work to improve the existing netball courts at Titchfield Park, Kirkby in Ashfield, Nottinghamshire. The works cover upgraded lighting, court resurfacing, fence repairs and associated ancillary work. This is a sports-facility construction project, classified under CPV 45000000 (construction work), with delivery at Titchfield Park. Nottinghamshire County Council provided procurement services for the council. The requirement combines design and physical improvements to an existing outdoor sports facility, rather than construction of a new venue.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Lightmain Company Limited. The award is active; the contract is also active and was signed on 16 September 2026. The contract value is £104,730 excluding VAT (£125,677 including VAT), and its period runs from 1 October to 10 December 2026. The earlier estimated tender value was £150,000 excluding VAT (£180,000 including VAT). It was run as an open, below-threshold competition, with one lot. Bids were assessed on price (50%), quality (40%) and social value (10%). The original submission deadline was extended to 10 April 2026 at noon; the enquiry deadline was 20 March 2026 at 17:00 UTC.

For suppliers considering similar future work for Ashfield District Council, this award shows demand for a complete package covering design, supply and installation at an existing public sports facility. A credible competitor would need to deliver court resurfacing alongside lighting upgrades and fencing repairs, and coordinate any associated ancillary works. The combination of design and construction capability is relevant: suppliers able to manage the works as an integrated project may be better placed than firms offering only a single trade. The contract was awarded through an open competition, and the evaluation gave half the score to price, with the remainder split between quality and social value. The procurement was marked suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, and the selected supplier is an SME.
