Summary of the contracting process

New Forest District Council commissioned refurbishment and redevelopment of the clubhouse at its Dibden Golf Centre in Hampshire. The ageing building had become visibly worn and outdated, and the works were intended to modernise its appearance, improve the experience for golfers, visitors and staff, and provide a welcoming, professionally presented facility. The project supports the Council’s leisure service standards and its aim of maintaining attractive, safe and well-kept public assets. The requirement is building refurbishment, including building installation work and repair or maintenance of building installations. The work relates to the golf centre clubhouse; the recorded delivery areas cover England, including the South East.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to MAIN FIX INTERIORS LTD. The Council used an open competition below the procurement threshold, with one lot; small and medium-sized businesses were considered suitable to participate. The stated evaluation weighting was 70% service and quality and 30% cost. The tender deadline was 18 May 2026, and enquiries closed on 13 May 2026. The award value was £100,000 excluding VAT (£120,000 including VAT). The contract was signed on 13 July 2026, with a contract period recorded from 20 July to 31 October 2026. The lot’s planned period was 1 July to 30 September 2026. The award is active and the contract is recorded as active.

For suppliers considering comparable clubhouse refurbishment work for New Forest District Council, this award indicates demand for contractors able to modernise an ageing public leisure building while keeping the needs of golfers, visitors and staff in view. Credible competitors would need to demonstrate strong service quality and workmanship, since quality and service carried substantially more evaluation weight than price. Relevant capabilities include refurbishment and building installation, together with repair or maintenance of building installations. Suppliers should be able to deliver a professional, welcoming finish that supports safe, well-maintained public facilities and meets the Council’s leisure service expectations. The single-lot project was considered suitable for SMEs, indicating that a smaller specialist contractor could compete where it has the skills and capacity to deliver the whole requirement.
