## Summary

The Nuneaton & Bedworth Borough Council has planned a procurement process for Leisure Management Operator Services involving the operation of sports facilities in locations such as Bedworth and Nuneaton. The tender is currently at the planning stage, with the formal procurement process expected to begin in mid to late April 2024. The Council aims to appoint an Economic Operator in 2025 for a contract term of up to 15 years. The procurement method will be a Competitive Procedure with Negotiation under the Public Contract Regulations 2015, facilitated through the Find a Tender Service.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses in the sports facilities operation services sector to compete for the management and operation of multiple sports facilities in the Nuneaton and Bedworth borough. Businesses with expertise in repair and maintenance work related to sports facilities, building and facilities management services, and recreational, cultural, and sporting services would be well-suited to participate in this procurement process. The estimated contract duration is 15 years, with the service commencement expected in early 2026 following a mobilisation period post-contract award in 2025.

## Notice

Important: As this notice is a prior information notice, the tender documentation is not yet available nor has the formal procurement process (i.e. the selection stage) commenced. The Council envisage going to the market to commence the pre-selection stage early/mid April 2024. This prior information notice is not a call for competition. Its purpose is to notify the market regarding the forthcoming procurement process due to go live mid to late April. A concession contract notice shall also be issued when the procurement officially goes live. The Council is seeking to procure an Economic Operator for the management and operation of sport facilities such as Bedworth Physical Activity Hub, Pingles Leisure Centre and Jubilee Sports Centre in Nuneaton and Bedworth borough. At this stage, the Council is targeting the appointment of an Economic Operator in 2025 for a period of up to 15 years but full details will be contained in the procurement documentation once the process officially commences. The Council intends to undertake a procurement process in line with the Concession Contract Regulations 2016. Whilst this service falls within the Light Touch Regime, the Council will be undertaking the procurement via the Find a Tender Service (FTS) and applying the principle of the Competitive Procedure with Negotiation under the Public Contract Regulations 2015.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

It is the Council's view that the object of the contractual arrangements are classified as a service concession contract under the Concession Contract Regulations 2016 and furthermore, fall under the scope of the Light Touch Regime services listed under Schedule 3 of the regulations. In the interests of transparency, fairness, equality of opportunity, best value and future development flexibility, the Council will undertake a FTS advertised procurement process which encompasses the aspects and core principles of the Competitive Procedure with Negotiation as set out within the Public Contract Regulations 2015. The process shall therefore involve: - Pre-selection stage - A tender stage - Negotiation and dialogue (if required) - A second tender stage noted as Best and Final Offer (if required) Please note, should initial bids be received and deemed acceptable, the Council may award on this basis without the need to undertake any negotiation. Therefore, prospective bidders should consider submitting an initial bid that could be acceptable without any need to negotiate. Alternatively, if the Council is unable to award, it may include an additional dialogue/negotiation stage(s) and tender stage(s) but the bidders will all be updated based on any change. Additional information: At this stage, the Council intends to propose a term of up to 15 years including extensions (180 months) but excluding mobilisation. The official term is therefore intending to commence from formal operation for members of the public to utilise the service. It must be noted that the Council envisage the contract award taking place in 2025 with a contract go live date post award followed by a mobilisation period and then the intended term commencing from the formal operational go live date scheduled to be early 2026. Please note, the full tender documentation will provide absolute clarity once the procurement process officially commences.
