This procurement falls under the construction industry category and is at the tender stage, with the submission deadline set for 13th November 2020. The project, which has a budget of £2 million, will commence in April 2021 and is expected to last eight months, employing the JCT Standard Building Contract Without Quantities with relevant contractor specifications.
