Summary of the contracting process

Dartford Borough Council is procuring building works at Dartford Football Club. The requirement is to replace the cladding on the external walls of the clubhouse and install a new waterproof covering to the clubhouse roof. This is a single roof and specialist construction works package, rather than a general facilities-management contract. The work will be delivered at the football club in Dartford, Kent. The detailed specification and supporting appendices are available through the Council’s procurement process after a formal expression of interest. The procurement is classified as roof works and other specialist trade construction works. Businesses should therefore be able to undertake external wall cladding replacement and roof waterproofing as an integrated construction project, with suitable arrangements for delivering the works at the club site.

The process has reached tender: Dartford Borough Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition, with electronic submission permitted. Enquiries were due by 29 September 2026 at 12:00, and tenders were due by 12 October 2026 at 12:00. The planned contract period is 18 November 2026 to 17 March 2027, with an extension available to 17 April 2027 for unforeseen delays. The estimated value is £1,300,000 excluding VAT, or £1,560,000 including VAT. There is one lot. Evaluation is based on price at 60%, technical and professional ability at 15%, service delivery at 10%, account management at 5%, social value at 5% and sustainability at 5%. The Council will report the tender outcome to Cabinet before deciding whether to proceed, so award is not guaranteed.

This opportunity suits an SME construction or specialist roofing contractor able to manage a substantial clubhouse refurbishment package covering both wall cladding and roof waterproofing. Competitors need to demonstrate technical and professional ability, alongside a credible approach to service delivery and account management. The evaluation also gives specific weight to social value and sustainability, so suppliers with practical proposals in these areas may be better placed to compete. The requirement is likely to suit businesses with the workforce, site-management capability and delivery experience needed to coordinate external building works safely and effectively. It may also suit a specialist contractor working with suitable supply-chain partners, provided the bidding organisation can take responsibility for the required technical performance, delivery arrangements and client management.
