Summary of the contracting process

Bolsover District Council appointed a principal contractor for its bathroom refurbishment programme in tenanted council-owned homes. The works cover the replacement of bathroom suites and associated equipment, including extractor fans and lighting, within occupied properties. This is construction and refurbishment work, classified under CPV 45211310 for bathroom construction. Delivery is across the council’s housing stock in the Bolsover District area. The contractor is expected to work sensitively in occupied homes, putting tenant needs first and providing flexible, high-quality support and liaison. The work also involves partnering with the council’s Contract Administrator to meet tenant requirements and improve satisfaction. Businesses should therefore be able to manage domestic refurbishment safely while maintaining effective communication with residents and council representatives.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 15 September 2026 to MATTHEWS & TANNERT LIMITED. The awarded value is £2,280,000 including VAT. It used a below-threshold open competition, with electronic auction arrangements and electronic submission permitted. Nine bids were received, all from SMEs. The enquiry deadline was 6 May 2026 at 12:00 and the tender deadline was 15 May 2026 at 12:00. The awarded contract period is 30 September 2026 to 31 March 2027, with extensions available for two years plus a further two years, giving a maximum end date of 31 March 2031. Evaluation weighted price and quality equally, at 50% each. The lot was marked suitable for SMEs.

This award demonstrates sustained demand from Bolsover District Council for bathroom renewal in occupied social housing, delivered through a principal-contractor model and a JCT contract. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical experience installing complete bathroom suites and associated electrical or ventilation equipment, together with the capacity to coordinate work across tenanted homes. Strong tenant liaison is central: suppliers must be flexible, respectful and able to minimise disruption while responding to individual tenant needs. Effective partnership with a Contract Administrator, reliable site management, quality control and evidence of resident satisfaction would strengthen a future offer. The procurement also shows that an SME can compete successfully, but bidders must present a commercially competitive solution alongside clear evidence of quality, communication and delivery capability.
