Summary of the contracting process

Crowborough Town Council is procuring construction works to refurbish and extend the Wolfe Pavilion at Wolfe Recreation Ground in Crowborough, East Sussex. The project involves partial demolition of the existing sports building, construction of a new café area, retention and extension of the existing changing rooms, refurbishment of those facilities and associated external works. This is a building refurbishment and extension project, classified as construction work. The work will be delivered at the recreation ground in Crowborough. The requirement is a single package covering the pavilion and its related external works, rather than separate goods or standalone consultancy services. It is relevant to building contractors with experience of working on occupied or operational sports and community facilities, refurbishment projects and associated external construction.

The procurement reached tender: Crowborough Town Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Tenders were to be submitted by email by 21 September 2026 at 13:00. The contract period is 13 October 2026 to 29 May 2027. The estimated value is £750,000 excluding VAT, or £900,000 including VAT. This is one lot. Award assessment covers time, quality and cost, with the ability to adhere to the programme identified as critical. The tender deadline was extended to 21 September 2026, and answers to tender queries were issued with updated documentation. Bidders should use the tender submission arrangements set by the council and allow for the specified programme when preparing their offers.

The opportunity suits small and medium-sized construction businesses as well as larger building contractors able to deliver a substantial refurbishment and extension within a defined programme. Relevant capability includes partial demolition, structural and general building work, café or commercial kitchen-area construction, refurbishment and extension of changing-room facilities, and external works. Strong programme management is important because adherence to the construction schedule is expressly critical. Bidders should also be able to coordinate the design and site information associated with the project, including updated drawings, asbestos reinspection reports, a bat emergence report and biodiversity impact calculations. Contractors with experience delivering sports, recreation, community or public buildings, and with the capacity to manage multiple workstreams on one site, are well placed to compete.
