Summary of the contracting process

Cheshire East Council is seeking a single contractor to construct a concrete wheeled sports facility at The Carrs park in Wilmslow. The work replaces the former steel wheeled sports facility, which was removed after inspection found it had reached the end of its life because of excessive corrosion. This is a construction works contract, with the contractor responsible for design as well as construction under a JCT Minor Works Contract with Contractor’s Design. The delivery site is The Carrs, Wilmslow, Cheshire. The facility is intended for wheeled sports and will restore this type of recreation provision at one of Wilmslow’s main open spaces.

The process reached tender: the council invited offers through an open competition below the relevant threshold. Bids are submitted electronically through The Chest. The deadline for questions was 5 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC; the submission deadline is 20 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract is scheduled to run from 3 January 2027 to 2 January 2028. The estimated value is £180,000 excluding VAT (£216,000 including VAT). There is one lot. Evaluation has a qualifying Procurement Specific Questionnaire stage, followed for qualifying bids by financial and qualitative assessment. Scored questions use weighted scores from 0 to 10, and the resulting financial and qualitative scores determine supplier ranking.

This requirement is suited to construction contractors able to take single-contractor responsibility for both design and delivery of a concrete wheeled sports facility. The contract calls for the design and construction capability needed to provide a replacement facility at a public park, under a JCT Minor Works Contract with Contractor’s Design. Participation is reserved for small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community or social enterprises, and the lot is identified as suitable for SMEs. Suppliers should be prepared to complete a mandatory procurement questionnaire and provide both financial and qualitative responses for evaluation. The opportunity is a single-site works package in Wilmslow, rather than a multi-site delivery programme.
