## Summary

The Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council is seeking to appoint a qualified project manager for the completion of an Outline Business Case concerning a District Heat Network in Barnsley Town Centre. The project, valued at £40,000, is part of a broader initiative supported by Heat Network Delivery Unit funding. The procurement process is at the Award stage, having concluded the tender period on 9th October 2019, with the contract scheduled to run from 4th November 2019 until 29th February 2020. The primary industry category for this tender is project-management services, specifically those not related to construction work, and it is located in the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) specialising in project management services, particularly those with experience in energy projects or local authority collaborations.
