This initiative is aimed at addressing the lack of available workspace in the St Martins area of Looe, England. The project falls under the training services industry category, with an engagement end date set for 28th June 2019. A total funding allocation of £90,000 (part of the ERDF) is available, encouraging organisations to submit proposals with a minimum application level of £15,000, and project activities are expected to deliver for at least six months, extending potentially up to June 2022. This procurement tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses involved in construction, refurbishment, and workspace design, particularly those offering flexible commercial options tailored for start-ups and 'kitchen table' businesses. The tender is particularly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) looking to collaborate with local partners to innovate and meet essential community needs. Businesses with experience in developing cost-effective, sustainable workspaces with potential for future expansion will find a conducive environment to submit competitive proposals. ## Notice SELAG04: Development of small workspace units in Looe There is a lack of workspace available in Looe, particularly in the St Martins area. This has been backed up by some very initial enquiries received by the CLLD team at local events. At present there are no specific projects tackling this issue. Projects are sought that create or refurbish buildings for new commercial activity that provides an economic benefit to residents of the Core area of Looe. This may take the form of business units, a business incubator space, hot desking facilities or any other form of workspace that meets the local need. The aim is to create starter units around the St Martin area of Looe. We are looking for: * Projects that provide a range of units which are accessible for new enterprises and 'kitchen table' businesses looking to expand into premises. * In particular, this may include flexible lease arrangements and designed with the ability for physical expansion, e.g. into the next door unit. BREEAM certified buildings will be proposed where appropriate. * Applicants will provide an evaluation report for each project to aid learning. Indicatively, the Local Action Group has allocated the following amount: PS90,000 (ERDF) ERDF and ESF investment in the CLLD target areas is intended to make a significant impact on local employment, skills and enterprise. The minimum application level for funding is PS15,000 All potential applicant organisations are encouraged to work with other local partners to generate new ideas, approaches and develop joint proposals. Typically projects should plan to deliver activity for a minimum of 6 months and can plan to deliver up to June 2022. However, the LAG reserves the right to vary the minimum and maximum durations, upwards or downwards. Outputs to be delivered - 20m2 (P12) This Call is for projects to deliver activity for individuals residing in the Core Lower Super Output Area of Looe. The criterion for assessing project proposals is set out in the Evaluation and Scoring Guidance. Innovation, partnership working, community engagement, value for money, sustainability and alignment with local strategic priorities will all form key parts of the assessment of applications. * Construction of small units * Refurbishment of existing buildings for use as business units * Small-scale business incubation centre ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/1ad6ad50-fd05-4f2c-8b55-af38988efbaa | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 Apr 2019 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 28 Jun 2019 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CORNWALL DEVELOPMENT COMPANY LTD | | Locality | REDRUTH | | Post town | Truro | | Postcode | TR15 3QG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK3 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | ITL 3 | TLK30 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | Local authority | Cornwall | | Electoral ward | Pool & Tehidy | | Westminster constituency | Camborne and Redruth | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80500000 - Training services ## Release History - 15 Apr 2019 at 14:35 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/1ad6ad50-fd05-4f2c-8b55-af38988efbaa ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/1ad6ad50-fd05-4f2c-8b55-af38988efbaa 15th April 2019 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/7f314513-aee8-4227-bb1c-bd5e6bd21944 SELAG Call Specification - https://communityledcornwall.co.uk/calls-for-applicants/ Link to CLLD website ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
