## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by South Tyneside Borough Council, involved the refurbishment of tennis courts in the North East England region. Categorised under 'Other building completion work' within the works industry, this tender was part of the Football Foundation's Building Construction Framework. The contract, identified as "C8835", was directly awarded to Sportex Group Ltd, the sole supplier for Lot 10, following a process without prior publication of a call for competition. The status of this contract is marked complete, with the agreement becoming active after being signed on 5th March 2025, for a value of £228,169.

This procurement presents opportunities for specialised businesses engaged in overhaul and refurbishment work, particularly those with established frameworks or capabilities to fulfil limited competition procurements. Small and medium enterprises such as Sportex Group Ltd, which illustrate a strong regional presence and quality service provision within similar framework agreements, are well-suited for such opportunities. Companies can leverage their existing competencies and pre-established relationships with authorities to participate effectively in direct award situations, thereby facilitating business growth in niche construction and refurbishment sectors.
