Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Forest of Dean District Council procured leisure equipment for the new Five Acres Leisure Centre. The requirement covered project management, design and options advice, procurement, and installation where specified. This is a combined equipment supply and development-management service rather than a straightforward product purchase. The main category is leisure equipment (CPV 37416000), with the work associated with Five Acres Leisure Centre and the Forest of Dean area. The council is based in Coleford, Gloucestershire. Suppliers with experience of planning and delivering leisure-facility equipment, coordinating design decisions and managing installation would be relevant to this requirement. The scope could suit an equipment specialist that also provides project management and procurement support, or a lead contractor able to coordinate those functions across a new leisure-centre project.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, with the council stating that it was awarded through a framework. The award date was 16 June 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. Alliance Leisure Services Ltd was selected as the supplier. The contract value is £983,470.61. One bid was recorded. The single lot used price as its award criterion and covered the full project-management, design, options-advice, equipment-procurement and specified-installation requirement. The lot itself is recorded as cancelled, although the award and contract are recorded as active. No contract-period dates are provided, so the duration cannot be established from the published outcome.

This award demonstrates substantial demand from Forest of Dean District Council for integrated leisure-centre equipment delivery, combining equipment knowledge with project management, design advice, procurement and installation. A credible future competitor would need to show that it can advise on equipment options, translate those options into a deliverable scheme, manage purchasing and coordinate installation within a new leisure facility. Evidence of completed leisure-centre or similar public-sector projects would help demonstrate practical capability, including coordination with construction or refurbishment teams and control of installation requirements. The selected supplier is a large organisation, indicating that the requirement can favour businesses with the capacity to manage a sizeable, multi-stage project. Equipment specialists may therefore need strong delivery partners or a lead-consortium model to match the required breadth.
