## Summary

Thetford Town Council is reaching out for expressions of interest for the restoration of St Peters Church in Thetford, classified under construction work. The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with the deadline for submissions set for noon on 20 February 2019. The estimated value for this project ranges from £275,000 to £300,000, with the contract period beginning on 31 May 2019 and concluding on 31 March 2022. Interested contractors are required to showcase previous work through a Pre-Qualification Questionnaire, where a shortlist of five will be invited to tender based on a quality-cost evaluation framework.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in construction and restoration, particularly those with experience in heritage or ecclesiastical projects. Companies that have completed similar restoration works in the past 3-5 years, especially those with proficiency in using traditional materials like Welsh slate and lime render, will be advantageous competitors. By participating in this process, successful bidders could enhance their portfolios while contributing to the preservation of a historical site, potentially attracting more work within the public sector and the construction marketplace.
