## Summary

Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council has completed its procurement process to appoint a principal contractor for the refurbishment of the Stalybridge Art Gallery and Library, located in the North West of the United Kingdom. This project falls under the construction work industry category and was part of the Capital Regeneration Programme. The procurement was carried out using a restricted procedure as a mini-competition under the North West Construction Hub Framework. Key dates include the tender period end on 29th August 2025, and the contract period running from 28th September 2025 to 15th March 2026. The awarded contract has a value of £494,881.63 GBP.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the construction sector, particularly those experienced in refurbishment projects. Suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, the phased nature of the project, demanding sectional handovers, may especially favour contractors adept at managing complex timelines. While Seddon Construction Limited, a large-scale supplier, was awarded the contract, similar tenders could be accessible for companies with a strong track record in delivering multifaceted construction projects under strict deadlines. Such opportunities can catalyse business growth by allowing firms to showcase their expertise and expand their portfolio within the public sector.
