UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Crowborough Town Council is seeking a construction contractor for the refurbishment and extension of Wolfe Pavilion at Wolfe Recreation Ground in Crowborough, East Sussex. The works comprise partial demolition of the existing sports building, construction of a new café area, retention and extension of the existing changing rooms, and associated external works. This is a building refurbishment and extension project, including demolition, new-build construction, alterations to sports facilities and external works. Delivery is at Wolfe Recreation Ground in Crowborough. The requirement is classified as construction work and falls within the works category. It may suit contractors able to manage a mixed refurbishment and construction project in an operational recreational or community setting.

The procurement has reached tender: Crowborough Town Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Tender submissions were to be made by email, with electronic submission allowed. The tender deadline was 21 September 2026 at 13:00, following an extension. There is one lot, and the estimated value is £750,000 excluding VAT, or £900,000 including VAT. The contract period runs from 13 October 2026 to 29 May 2027. The award assessment considers time, quality and cost, with the ability to adhere to the programme identified as critical. Bidders should therefore address programme certainty, delivery quality and price in their offers, alongside the requirements set out for the pavilion refurbishment, extension and associated external works.

This opportunity suits an established construction contractor with experience of refurbishing and extending sports, community or other public buildings. Relevant capability includes managing partial demolition, coordinating new-build café facilities, adapting and extending changing rooms, and delivering associated external works as one integrated project. Competitors should be able to plan and control a multi-trade building programme, maintain quality across refurbishment and new construction, and demonstrate reliable programme management. Experience working in recreational or community environments would be useful, particularly where existing facilities must be retained and incorporated into the finished building. The project is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so capable regional contractors and specialist construction businesses with suitable delivery capacity may be well placed to compete.
