## Summary

The Wakefield Council Customer Service is overseeing the procurement for the "Works at Sandal Castle (Phase 1)" project, a crucial restoration endeavour in the heritage sector. The project seeks to repair significant structural elements of Sandal Castle, a Scheduled Ancient Monument located in Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom. Set under the open procurement method, the tender was published on 9th August 2018, with a tender period that concluded on 4th September 2018. The contract is anticipated to commence on 15th October 2018 and is set to complete by 21st December 2018. The estimated value for this contract is approximately £227,675.25.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in construction and renovation, particularly those experienced in heritage building works. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the project aims to replace aged materials with durable alternatives and improve long-term maintenance efficiency. Companies with expertise in castle construction work and historical renovations will find this tender especially relevant as rebuilding efforts aim to enhance public access and safety at the monument.

## Notice

Sandal Castle is owned by the Council and is a Scheduled Ancient Monument. The monument has public access provided by the provision of walkways, two wooden bridges, wooden steps to the top of the Keep and a wooden viewing platform. These were erected between 1999 and 2002. The wooden bridges and steps to the Keep have been closed to the public due to the requirement to undertake significant repair works. The extensive repair works to the site include the replacement of the main supporting frames and the other elements of the bridges, Keep steps and viewing platform which are currently structurally unsound, with timber. This essentially would result in damaged/rotten materials from the structure being replaced like for like. In addition, the works include the replacement of all decking on the structures with a more durable alternative and all of the balustrades and the deep cleaning of all metal infill panels. The additional works are designed to significantly reduce future maintenance requirements at the site, such as the regular replacement of wooden balustrades and decking, and remove the need to carry out similar substantial works as the remaining elements of the structures deteriorate further.
