South Derbyshire District Council (SDDC) is re-running its procurement for the replacement and upgrade of external doors and glazing at Rosliston Forestry Centre, following an earlier process that did not yield any suitable bids. Ahead of relaunching the opportunity (the new tender will be published within 5 working days of the supplier day, estimated value £55k), the Council is inviting potential suppliers to attend a supplier engagement session to help shape the specification and ensure the final tender is realistic, deliverable, and aligned with market capabilities.
The works will focus on replacing timber and Perspex installations across the site with powder-coated aluminium frames and double-glazed units. The aim is to improve:
- Accessibility (in line with Equality Act 2010)
- Durability and performance
- Energy efficiency and sustainability
- Visitor experience and aesthetics
Key areas of focus include:
- Main visitor centre doors and glazed façades
- Front and rear café entrances
- Office access doors
- Associated glazed cladding and frame works
- Integration with existing fire alarm systems
Supplier Day Details:
- Date: Tuesday 26 August 2025
- Time: 09:00-12:00
- Location: Rosliston Forestry Centre, Burton Road, Rosliston, Swadlincote, DE12 8JX
Purpose of the Supplier Day:
- To give suppliers the opportunity to visit the site and inspect existing installations
- To provide clarity on the Council's design intent and delivery expectations
- To invite supplier feedback to inform the revised specification
- To address technical or logistical queries ahead of formal tender release
- To help suppliers assess their suitability to bid
Why This Matters:
Following the unsuccessful outcome of the initial procurement, this supplier day is a vital step to ensure market alignment. Early supplier insight will directly shape the scope and approach of the re-tender, helping us ensure a successful outcome.
