About

Swindon Borough Council awarded a contract to Ice Tech UK for the replacement of ice rink plant and equipment and installation of a radiant low emissivity ceiling at the Link Leisure Centre in Swindon.

The contract was awarded without prior publication of a call for competition under the negotiated procedure, justified by absence of competition for technical reasons, protection of exclusive rights including intellectual property rights, and extreme urgency brought about by unforeseeable events.

The Link Leisure Centre suffered significant damage from storm flooding on 17-18 September 2023, causing total power loss and preventing access to the ice rink area for two weeks.

The Authority and GLL acted with extreme urgency to identify suitable replacement equipment to enable the ice rink to reopen by 17 December 2023.

The contract value was £373,700.
