## Summary

The Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council is seeking to engage talented architects and urban designers for the "Rochdale Town Hall Square Engagement Day," currently in the planning stage. This tender process aims to re-imagine the grade I listed town hall and its surrounding area as part of a £20 million transformation project funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund. A market engagement event is scheduled for 15 June, comprising two sessions at Rochdale Town Hall, with an engagement deadline set for 31 August 2018. The procurement involves urban development construction and related consultancy services, targeting businesses in the North West region of the United Kingdom.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in architectural design, project management consultancy, and urban development. Companies with a strong track record in working on heritage projects and a commitment to delivering social value are particularly well-suited to compete. The focus on restoring cultural and heritage sites makes it an excellent opportunity for firms looking to expand their portfolio and contribute to the revitalisation of Rochdale’s urban landscape.

The town hall has just been awarded a first stage pass from the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) as part of a PS20m transformation. We want teams with vision and considerable experience of working with historic buildings to help guide this major project to restore the town hall's many heritage features and re-imagine spaces to create a major visitor attraction. An opportunity is also available for the redevelopment of Town Hall Square, which is surrounded by historically significant buildings in the heart of the town centre conservation area, with PS3m (including professional fees) allocated for this part of the project. These projects are part of the council's vision to reinvent Rochdale and invest heavily in culture and heritage following a PS250m investment programme, which has transformed the town centre. The re-imaging of the Town Hall and its square will help us make Rochdale an even better place to live, work, visit and invest and we want you to be part of it. We're holding a market engagement day event for potential suppliers at Rochdale Town Hall on Friday 15 June. The event will be held over two sessions: Session 1 - 10:00 - 12:00 Session 2 - 13:00 - 15:00 Format for both sessions: 1) Presentation by Rochdale Council: Rochdale Town Hall & Town Hall Square: The Opportunity Presentation by STAR Procurement: 2) The Process (procurement procedure) 3) Social Value Q&A 4) Questions for attendees and comments on the specification to all panel members
