Summary of the contracting process

Flintshire County Council is seeking works to replace the existing second-generation synthetic turf at Hawarden High School with a new third-generation (3G) artificial pitch. The work includes a styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) infill system, new fencing and a spectator area. This is a sports-facility construction project in Hawarden, Flintshire, North Wales. Suppliers whose work covers artificial sports surfaces and associated site improvements may find the scope relevant. The requirement combines pitch-system replacement with ancillary fencing and spectator provision, so the opportunity is broader than turf supply alone. The council is the buyer for the project.

The council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The enquiry deadline was 2 October 2026 at 12:00, and the bid deadline was 12 October 2026 at 15:00. The contract period is scheduled to run from 3 December 2026 to 25 February 2027. The stated estimated value is £1 excluding tax and £1.20 including tax. The procurement is divided into one lot. Evaluation gives price a 60% weighting, quality 30% and social value 10%. Electronic submission is allowed. The tender was published with an invitation to submit offers; the process stage is tender.

The requirement is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so it may suit firms of different sizes and organisational types. Suppliers with experience delivering synthetic sports pitches, particularly 3G systems using SBR infill, are directly relevant. The scope also calls for fencing and a spectator area, making it commercially pertinent to contractors able to deliver these associated works or coordinate specialist partners. The combined pitch and site works may suit sports-surface contractors with broader construction capability, as well as suppliers able to form a delivery team across these areas. Price carries the largest evaluation weighting, with quality and social value also assessed; bidders should be equipped to address all three elements.
