The Council is committed to its continued operation and accordingly has a made funding application to the LMF London Marathon Funding. The Council acknowledges that the award of the contract is dependent on this funding. However, it is necessary to begin procurement activities now in order that the successful supplier can undertake works in the 12-week window in the summer of 2027. The Council undertakes to keep suppliers informed. of its progress in obtaining funding and not to waste the time of suppliers should the funding package not be available. project seeks to secure the long-term future of the facility through replacement of the existing synthetic athletics track surface, associated base repairs and recertification to UK Athletics TrackMark standards. Accordingly, the Council would like to speak to suppliers with the necessary knowledge, skills and experience of such work about the shape of the imminent procurement through this advertised soft market testing process. The process will be undertaken strictly as per the Procurement Act 2023 and suppliers who do or not take part in the soft market testing exercise will not be advantaged or disadvantaged and will particularly not confer any advantage to any one supplier. All respondents to the Preliminary Market Engagement Notice will receive an anonymised summary of the discussions. No bidder confidential information will be shared. Affordability i.e. the likely cost of the works What contract form should be used e.g. JCT? Whether suppliers would need to sub- contract any elements The form of the specification Risk partition i.e. what uncertainties would affect the ability to the deliver the project for a fixed cost. Design considerations- i.e. what elements would be needed to be designed by the Council and what aspects would be designed by the supplier. Realistic delivery timeline i.e. when suppliers would be available to deliver the work and what their pipelines looked like. Proposed procurement route- the Council is proposing to use an Open Procedure albeit with supplier self -declarations of probity. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** planning - **CPV codes:** 45236114 - **Delivery regions:** UKI - **Delivery countries in notice:** GB - **Contract Period:** 28/06/2027 to 01/10/2027 ## Provenance and Official Sources - **Official Notice:** [Find a Tender notice](/out?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.find-tender.service.gov.uk%2FNotice%2F098374-2026) - **Last Source Update:** 2026-10-19T10:18:32.000Z - **This document generated:** 2026-10-21T09:06:57.615Z - **Machine API:** https://tenderline.uk/api/public/tenders/ocds-h6vhtk-0789ee
