UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council commissioned repair and cleaning work at Whitehall athletics track in Bristol. The work covers repairing one section of the track and cleaning the entire track. This is a sports-surface maintenance contract, specifically track repair and cleaning, rather than construction of a new facility. The requirement is a single package of works for the council’s athletics venue.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Bernhards Sports Surfaces Limited. The award was made on 30 July 2026, and the contract was signed on 20 September 2026. The contract runs from 21 September to 1 November 2026. Its value is £43,239 excluding VAT (£51,886.80 including VAT). Bristol City Council used a below-threshold limited competition. The requirement was arranged as one lot. One bid was recorded, from an SME, and that supplier was selected. The work is classified as construction work; the award was below the applicable threshold.

For suppliers of athletics-track maintenance, this award demonstrates Bristol City Council’s demand for specialist repair of a damaged track section alongside whole-track cleaning. A credible competitor would need practical capability in sports-surface repair and cleaning, with the equipment and staff to address a localised repair while treating the full track. The single bid recorded came from an SME, indicating that a business of that scale competed successfully; the council selected Bernhards Sports Surfaces Limited. The package combined repair and cleaning rather than separating the tasks, so suppliers able to deliver both elements would be well placed when this specific requirement returns. Experience working on athletics tracks and the capacity to complete the combined work within a short delivery window would support a strong response.
