The project will upgrade and refurbish the centre, including an extension and various internal works needed to create a community digital hub. It is a construction project covering leisure, culture and community-related buildings, with associated general building work. The procurement is supported by PEACEPLUS, a programme managed by the Special EU Programmes Body. The delivery location is identified as Bessbrook Community Centre, although the wider delivery coverage also includes the United Kingdom. This opportunity is aimed at contractors able to undertake building construction, extension and internal refurbishment works in a community facility. The procurement has reached tender: the council invited offers through an open procedure. Tender submissions were due by 17 September 2026 at 12:00. The planned contract period runs from 1 December 2026 to 25 February 2027. The estimated contract value is £527,675. The requirement is presented as a single project rather than separate lots. The procurement is categorised as works, with the main classification covering construction of buildings for leisure, sports and culture, alongside general building construction and construction of houses or multi-dwelling buildings. The published information identifies the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Offers are assessed under the requirements and criteria set out in the tender documents. This opportunity suits an established construction contractor with the capacity to deliver a multi-element community building project within a defined delivery window. Relevant capability includes building extensions, refurbishment of existing public or community premises, internal alteration works and coordination of several trades on an occupied or community-focused site. Experience in leisure, cultural, public-sector or similar community facilities would be useful, particularly where work must support a new digital or technology-enabled space. SMEs are expressly identified as suitable, so the scale is accessible to smaller competent contractors with appropriate project management, site supervision, workforce and supply-chain capacity. Contractors should be prepared to demonstrate that they can deliver the full upgrade and refurbishment requirement rather than a narrowly specialised individual trade package. ## Notice A project supported by PEACEPLUS, a programme managed by the Special EU Programmes Body (SEUPB) .
