The procurement is currently in the Tender stage, with the deadline for submissions set for 11th April 2017. This initiative falls within the cultural services industry category and is targeted for locations within Walsall, West Midlands. The procurement method is selective, using a restricted procedure, with a total contract value of £1,000,000 commencing from 14th August 2017 until 13th August 2022. This tender presents extensive opportunities for voluntary and community sector organisations, particularly those with innovative proposals that can deliver social, economic, and environmental benefits to the local community. Small community groups that may lack the capacity to submit individual proposals are encouraged to collaborate by forming consortia. As the project aims to keep local buildings accessible for community use, organisations focused on community action, social services, and cultural engagement will find this tender aligns perfectly with their objectives. ## Notice Walsall Council is offering the opportunity for a voluntary and community sector organisation to occupy the various current Library premises through the council's Community Asset Transfer programme. Walsall Council welcomes expressions of interest from voluntary and community sector organisations or several organisations working as a consortium who have the necessary expertise and imaginative proposals to take over the occupation of these buildings and make them available for use to the wider community. As part of the closure decision, the council has decided that opportunities for the community use of these buildings should be explored. The council therefore now wishes to explore Community Asset Transfer (CAT) as an alternative way of keeping the buildings open and available for use by the wider community. If any local small community groups are interested in being involved in the future use of these buildings, but do not have the capacity or do not wish to submit their own expression of interest, they may provide their contact details to the council. In order to facilitate contact between interested parties, the council will be pleased to share contact details with organisations or groups interested in developing a joint or consortium proposal, on request and in exchange for the contact details. Proposals from commercial organisations or projects that do not deliver, social, economic and environmental benefits to the local community and the people of Walsall will not be considered.
