Summary of the contracting process

Mansfield District Council is buying demolition and site-clearance works at the former Beales department store on Stockwell Gate, Mansfield, ahead of construction of the new Mansfield Connect building. The single contractor must demolish and deconstruct the store and associated former Co-op structures, remove asbestos and other hazardous materials, isolate or divert services, and clear the site. The work also includes surveys, design, licences and notices, temporary works, protection of retained and adjoining assets, environmental controls, lawful disposal or recovery of demolition materials, backfilling, compaction, grading, drainage and making good. The aim is to leave a secure, stable and safely drained site for future development. Nottinghamshire County Council is conducting the procurement on Mansfield District Council’s behalf.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition for one contractor; the requirement is not divided into lots. The tender set an enquiry deadline of 19 October 2026 at 23:59 and a bid deadline of 30 October 2026 at 12:00 (UK time). The contract period is 1 January to 30 June 2027, with work anticipated to start on site in January, subject to planning approval. The estimated value is £750,000 excluding VAT (£900,000 including VAT). Award is based on supplier capability as a pass/fail test, then quality weighted at 30% and price at 70%. The selected bidder would be preferred supplier subject to planning permission and would contract with Mansfield District Council under an NEC4 Engineering and Construction Contract, Option A, priced with an activity schedule.

This is a substantial, multi-disciplinary demolition package suited to a contractor able to deliver the full project as a single supplier, rather than provide only isolated services. Relevant capability includes safe structural demolition and deconstruction, asbestos and hazardous-material removal, utility disconnections or diversions, temporary works, protection of neighbouring structures and public areas, environmental management, waste recovery and disposal, and site reinstatement. The contractor must provide the necessary design, surveys, management, workforce, plant and materials, and leave the site secure and stable. Small and medium-sized businesses are considered suitable, but participation is geographically restricted: suppliers must be based or have established substantive business operations in Nottinghamshire or the adjoining counties of Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, Leicestershire or South Yorkshire. The requirement also offers local employment and supply-chain opportunities.
