Summary of the contracting process

Burnley Borough Council is seeking tenders from contractors to construct a new car park at The Prairie Sports Village in Burnley. This opportunity is targeted towards businesses with adequate resources and experience in collaboration with local authorities. The tender is currently in the active stage, with an overall project budget of £330,000, inclusive of VAT. The process is being conducted through an open competition method below the threshold, with tender submissions to be made electronically by 21 August 2026. The initial contract is anticipated to commence on 30 September 2026, for a five-week period, with the potential for extension should circumstances such as inclement weather necessitate it.

This tender opens significant opportunities for businesses in the construction industry, particularly those specialising in car park building. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with capabilities in managing local government projects may find this contract ideal for showcasing their expertise and expanding their portfolio within public sector works. The procurement emphasises both price and quality, with respective weightings of 70% and 30%, enabling competitive businesses to distinguish themselves through cost-effective solutions and high-quality deliverables. The project's location in Burnley provides a tangible growth opportunity for firms looking to strengthen their presence in the North West of England.
