## Summary

The procurement process for the redevelopment of Wath Library and the surrounding public realm has been initiated by Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council. This project involves the demolition of the existing library in Wath upon Dearne, Yorkshire and the Humber, and the construction of a new, modern library along with improved public spaces and a new commercial unit. This is classified under the construction industry category, specifically urban and library construction work. The tender has reached the award stage, with Tilbury Douglas Construction Ltd awarded the Pre-Construction Services contract starting from 21st July 2025 to 23rd February 2026, valued at £388,074, with a potential extension into further works estimated for an additional 15 months.

This redevelopment project offers significant opportunities for growth, particularly for companies specialising in construction and urban development. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the tender is structured to accommodate competitive bids from such businesses, even though the supplier awarded for this stage is a large company. The project's total value of £7,040,000 indicates substantial prospects for subsequent phases, attracting companies capable of delivering construction works on a large scale. The NEPO207 Construction Works Framework has facilitated this two-stage procurement process, providing structured progression and competitive opportunities for further development within the urban construction industry in the UK.

## Notice

The proposed scheme includes the demolition of the existing library in Wath upon Dearne and the creation of a brand-new library in its place to provide a modern, inviting, and inclusive community facility. The redevelopment also includes improved public realm and provision of a new commercial unit in order to enhance connectivity and visibility of the town centre offer. This is a two-stage tender for stage 1 Pre-Construction Services and Stage 2 Works progressed as a further competition via NEPO207 Construction Works Framework. Stage 1 awarded for 21/07/2025 to 23/02/2026 for PS388,074, option to extend into stage 2 works for an estimated 15 months.
