Summary of the contracting process

Erewash Borough Council commissioned works to redecorate rusted areas of the main roof steels at Victoria Park Leisure Centre in Ilkeston, Derbyshire. The requirement covers roof-steel and roof-support maintenance, including preparation and redecoration of affected areas, and is classified as works rather than a general supply or service contract. Delivery is at the leisure centre in Ilkeston. This is a single-site requirement focused on maintaining and protecting structural roof steelwork at an operational public leisure facility. Businesses relevant to this type of work include specialist steel fabricators, structural steel maintenance contractors, and firms experienced in corrosion treatment, protective coatings and repair work on roof-support systems. The named public-sector buyer is Erewash Borough Council.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to STEELCRAFT FABRICATIONS LTD, a Nottingham-based SME. It used a below-threshold tender route, with one completed lot. The contract was signed on 6 March 2026 and ran from 9 March to 3 April 2026. The recorded contract value is £40,000 excluding tax, with a gross value of £4,800,000. The award is active and the contract is active. The published information identifies roof supports, roof maintenance and repair and maintenance services as the relevant work categories. The available record does not set out a separate award date or detailed scoring criteria. This outcome indicates that the council selected a specialist works supplier for a short, defined programme of roof-steel redecoration at its leisure centre.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible competitors would need practical capability in inspecting and treating corroded structural steel, preparing rusted surfaces, applying suitable protective or decorative coatings, and working safely around roof-support structures. Experience in roof maintenance and steel fabrication would be directly relevant, particularly where the work involves an existing public leisure facility rather than new construction. Suppliers would also need the workforce, access equipment, site controls and project management capacity to complete a concentrated refurbishment programme with limited disruption to the facility. The award to an SME shows that the requirement was deliverable by a smaller specialist contractor. Local or regional firms serving Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire with evidence of comparable steelwork and maintenance projects would be well placed to compete when this buyer next requires similar work.
