This contract, valued at approximately £1,564,814 excluding VAT, marks the award stage of the procurement process and represents the completion of tendering activities associated with the project. Cawarden Co. Limited, identified as a supplier for the project, will commence the demolition works starting 1 April 2026, with a completion deadline of 31 March 2027. The procurement was executed through an open method, reflecting a below-threshold, open competition approach, focused on works specifically related to demolition, site preparation, and clearance work.
