Summary of the contracting process

Broxbourne Borough Council is procuring refurbishment works for John Warner Sports Centre in Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire. The requirement covers the overhaul and improvement of an existing sports facility, including construction work for sports facilities and associated refurbishment works. The appointed contractor will deliver the works at the sports centre in Hoddesdon. This is a works contract for a single refurbishment project, rather than a supply-only or routine service opportunity. The council is seeking a suitably qualified and experienced contractor able to undertake the full scope described in the scope of works and tender documents. Participation is reserved for suppliers based in Hertfordshire, so businesses outside the county are not eligible to compete directly.

The procurement has reached tender: Broxbourne Borough Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Tender queries had to be submitted through the electronic tendering portal by 5pm on 9 October 2026. Offers were due through the portal by noon on 28 October 2026. The contract is scheduled to run from 11 January 2027 to 29 October 2027. The estimated value is £3,500,000 excluding VAT, or £4,200,000 including VAT. The award decision is weighted 60% to quality and 40% to cost, so the strongest offer will need to demonstrate both a convincing delivery approach and competitive pricing. The opportunity is not divided into multiple competing packages; it is presented as one refurbishment requirement.

This opportunity suits Hertfordshire-based principal contractors with proven experience delivering substantial building refurbishment and sports-facility construction projects. Suppliers should be able to manage the complete works package, coordinate construction activity on an operational or community sports site, and demonstrate the qualifications and experience needed to deliver the scope in the tender documents. The quality weighting makes delivery methodology, project management, technical competence and evidence from comparable refurbishment work commercially important alongside price. Firms with the capacity to resource a defined construction project, manage programme and site risks, and provide a reliable team for the scheduled works are the natural target market. Specialist subcontractors may be relevant through a suitably experienced lead contractor.
