## Summary

Derry City and Strabane District Council initiated a tender for developing the former Lisnagelvin Leisure Centre site in Derry/Londonderry, classified under the construction work for commercial buildings category (CPV 45213100). This public procurement, under the works category, involved the site’s sale through a long lease under a competitive dialogue procurement method. The process initially entered the tender stage, closing submissions by 14th December 2022, and later reached the award stage by September 2025. However, despite being actively pursued through selective procurement, the status of the related award was deemed unsuccessful and eventually discontinued.

This development tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in mixed-use commercial property development, demolition, clearance, and site preparation. Ideal candidates include developers capable of presenting robust business cases and creative concept designs that align with the contracting authority’s high expectations for economic and strategic site utilisation. With an anticipated minimum site price of £600,000, firms possessing strong financial portfolios, strategic planning capabilities, and innovative design prowess stand to benefit from the business growth potential inherent in this ambitious project.
