The project, falling under the 'works' industry category, was selected for a 'selective' procurement method employing a 'Competitive flexible procedure'.

The standstill period for the award ends on 27th August 2025, and the construction is scheduled from 1st September 2025 to 6th February 2026. The total contract value is reported at approximately £13.9 million gross.

Businesses interested in community development projects or specialising in public infrastructure developments would find this tender well-suited to their expertise. The project encourages engagement with local suppliers and aims to provide economic boost through the development of community facilities. The competitive flexible procedure and the requirement for quality, price, and social value assessment create a conducive environment for innovation and forward-thinking construction solutions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) also have opportunities for involvement, although the primary focus remains on larger entities capable of managing comprehensive construction projects.
