Given the potential need for flexibility and high-quality service, businesses that prioritise customer communication and can navigate public sector regulations will have a competitive edge.

In the event that belongings are required to be stored in a storage facility, this service will be covered under Lot 1.

This lot is for non-residential properties only and will include office buildings, schools, community centres and other location within the Authority's property portfolio.
