## Summary

The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) is procuring a main contractor for the redevelopment of Broadcasting House in Belfast, aimed at creating an accessible and flexible space for content production and audience interaction. This tender, classified under construction work within the services industry, has an estimated contract value of £30 million, with a minimum value of £20 million. The open procurement process was announced on 25 March 2019, with the tender period concluding on 6 May 2019, and the contract is scheduled to commence on 17 June 2019, extending until 30 December 2022.
