## Summary

Thetford Town Council is conducting a tender process for the installation of fencing at Castle Park, located in Thetford, England. The procurement, classified under the CPV code for fencing, railing, and safety equipment installation work, is currently in the Tender stage and has a deadline for quotations set for noon on 22nd March 2019. Interested parties must submit their sealed bids to the Town Clerk at The Carnegie, Cage Lane, Thetford, IP24 2DS. The estimated value for this project is between £8,000 and £20,000, and it follows an open procedure, suitable for businesses both large and small, including voluntary, community, and social enterprises.

This tender provides a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in construction and fencing, particularly those familiar with heritage sites, as the work must consider the area's scheduled ancient monument status. Companies able to demonstrate relevant experience through past projects and provide necessary documentation such as public liability insurance will be well-positioned to compete. Moreover, participation in this project can enhance a firm's profile within the community and potentially lead to further work with local councils and similar entities.
