## Summary

The Oldham Council is currently conducting an open tender for the "Sale of Land & Associated Works (All Weather Sports Pitch)", focusing on revitalising the Chapel Road site for contemporary sporting events. This procurement falls under the construction work and recreational services categories, with the tender period ending on 8th January 2021. The contract is expected to commence on 22nd February 2021 and conclude by the end of December 2021. Situated in the North West of England, this project requires a commitment to uphold Football Association standards, with a significant emphasis on achieving Sport England specifications.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in construction, facility management, and sports pitch development, particularly those that are classified as small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies with expertise in constructing and maintaining high-quality sports facilities will be well-suited to compete for this contract, which not only aims to restore a community asset but also promises ongoing maintenance potential, thus fostering long-term business growth in the sector.

## Notice

This is not merely a sale of a sports pitch. The all-weather playing fields known locally as Chapel Road ("the Site") require significant works to be undertaken to bring them back to life and fit for 21st Century sporting events. The Council is looking for a contractual commitment from the Tenderer to undertake works to the Site in accordance with the FA's certified standards and requirements relating to 3G Football Turf Pitches as can be seen at Appendix 11, to maintain the Site in accordance with those requirements and for the Site to be registered on The FA register for 3G Football Turf Pitches. The works undertaken to the Site should be of a standard that achieves desired outcomes, in order to meet Sport England standards, and where required by planning, to ensure that the current users, and any potential future users have a state-of-the art facility to train on, play on, and if appropriate, to hold events at. As the Council is dictating that these works must be carried out, and as the Council will have an ongoing view in terms of design, quality and other matters, this project is being procured based on a Works Contract and not simply a sales contract. The anticipated spend falls short of the OJEU threshold, and on that basis the procurement is being conducted in accordance with the Council's own Contract Procedure Rules and EU Treaty Principles.
