Summary of the contracting process

Redditch Borough Council procured refurbishment and reconfiguration works at Abbey Stadium in Redditch. The requirement covers the existing ground- and first-floor changing rooms and associated facilities, within the sports facility. It is a construction works contract involving refurbishment, repair and maintenance of sports facilities. The work is for the council’s Abbey Stadium site and is intended to improve and reorganise the changing-room areas and related accommodation. Businesses relevant to this requirement include sports-facility contractors, building refurbishment specialists, construction companies and firms experienced in delivering works within operational or public-sector leisure environments. The named buyer is Redditch Borough Council, a sub-central public authority. The selected supplier is Connect Construction Group Ltd, based in Halesowen.

This procurement has been awarded following a below-threshold open competition, and the contract is active. Connect Construction Group Ltd was selected for the single lot. The estimated tender value was £500,000 excluding VAT (£600,000 including VAT); the awarded contract value is £442,048.53 excluding VAT (£530,458.24 including VAT). The contract was signed on 7 September 2026 and runs from 7 September 2026 to 7 January 2027. The original tender closing time was noon on 11 June 2026, with an amendment stating that it changed to noon on 23 June 2026. Enquiries closed at 5pm on 3 June 2026. Evaluation placed 60% weight on price and 40% on quality and technical merit.

This award demonstrates demand from Redditch Borough Council for substantial refurbishment and reconfiguration of sports-facility accommodation, particularly changing rooms and associated facilities. A credible competitor for similar work would need construction and refurbishment capability, experience working on sports or leisure premises, and the capacity to manage coordinated works across existing ground- and first-floor facilities. Repair and maintenance expertise relevant to sports facilities would also be valuable. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that a suitably capable smaller construction business can compete for this type of council requirement. Future credibility would depend on presenting a strong technical approach alongside competitive pricing, because quality and technical merit accounted for a significant part of the evaluation. The requirement suits contractors able to deliver complete, well-managed refurbishment packages rather than isolated specialist services.
