The focus is on the construction and refurbishment of communal coworking spaces, business units, and facilities that cater to the needs of local enterprises. Key deadlines include an engagement end date of 20 December 2019, with a planned project completion extending up to June 2022. This procurement falls within the construction industry, specifically related to art, cultural, and commercial buildings, with an indicative funding amount of £300,000 from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in construction and community development, particularly those experienced in creating or refurbishing workspaces that foster collaboration and support local entrepreneurs. Companies that can provide innovative, cost-effective solutions for coworking spaces and community facilities stand to benefit from this initiative, which aims to stimulate economic development and job creation in the region. Aiming for projects with a minimum funding application of £50,000, this tender invites enterprises that are equipped to deliver impactful community-centric projects. ## Notice An element of the AMLAG LDS is to drive business growth in the area, through the encouragement of increased investment in the existing facilities of local companies, to promote sustainable growth and job creation. Furthermore, anecdotal evidence suggests there is ongoing demand for communal co-working and hot desking facilities in AMLAG, fuelled by the prevalence of entrepreneurs in the area. First hand evidence from current AMLAG funding applicants confirms the business growth benefits that such facilities offer including; * Increased productivity ( over homeworking ) * Ideas exchange & Networking * New business referrals * Cost management The LDS also states a desire to enable community development through the enhancement of community facilities, their functionality and usage. Such activity will also lend itself to the programme's legacy aims in building community capacity, and encouraging community cohesion through their ongoing use. Projects are sought that create or refurbish buildings for new or increased commercial activity that provides an economic benefit to residents of the Core areas of AMLAG. This may take the form of the construction of new, or the refurbishment of existing, business units, coworking spaces, hot desking facilities or any other form of workspace that meets the local need. We are looking for: * Projects that provide communal coworking facilities which are accessible to new enterprises and 'kitchen table' businesses looking to expand into premises. * Projects that provide new business units. * Projects that provide business growth and job creation through the refurbishment, or expansion of existing company facilities. * Projects that enhance community facilities and their usage through the internal refurbishment of community buildings.
