Framework
An agreement that sets terms for work the buyer may order later, often from several suppliers. The value shown usually covers the whole agreement, not one job.
Open for bids / closing date
You must submit by the closing date and time, normally through the buyer's own online portal. Late bids are normally refused.
Clarification questions
A deadline for asking the buyer questions about the tender. It is earlier than the closing date.
Conditions of participation
What the buyer asks suppliers to show before they can be considered, such as experience, insurance or accreditations.
Bids are scored on
How the buyer will compare bids, usually a split between price and quality. A 60/40 split in favour of quality means the cheapest bid will not necessarily win.
Lots
A tender can be split into parts. You can often bid for only the lots that suit you.
Area (ITL)
The buyer names an official statistical area for where the work is, not a street address. Check the tender documents for the actual sites.
UK4 and other notice codes
Official codes for the type of notice. A "tender notice" means bids are being invited.

Description

Harborough District Council are seeking suppliers who are able to carry out refurbishment works at Wadkins Pavilion, Houghton and Thurnby Cricket Club, including replacement of the roof covering, concrete repairs, drainage repair works, refurbishment of the changing and shower facilities, installation of a new accessible WC, replacement windows and associated internal redecoration and fit out works. Regarding the proposal that the Function Room glazing position is adjusted, this is likely to require some changes to the Mechanical and Electrical installation details in the Function Room. The details of these changes are being finalised with Harborough District Council. If changes are confirmed during the tender period then a tender addendum will be issued with the details of these changes. Mandatory Site Visit Attendance at a mandatory supervised site visit is a condition of participation in this procurement process. The site visit will take place at: Wadkins Sports Pavilion, Wadkins Way, Bushby, Leicester, LE7 9NA Site visits will be conducted on 2nd and 9th November 2026. Bidders must register in advance to attend the site visit. Instructions for registering and arranging attendance are set out in Section 7.2 of Document 1. Only bidders who have successfully registered and attended a site visit in accordance with these instructions will be eligible to submit a tender. Please note: The Council reserves the right to eliminate bids from the procurement process (without evaluation), that are received from any potential supplier that has not attended a site visit. Further information about the service requirements can be obtained in the tender documentation within this tender pack.
