## Summary

Norfolk County Council has completed a procurement process for the refurbishment of Carrow House to host the Norwich Unity Hub, which will accommodate the Adult Learning services in Norfolk. This tender, identified as S512359, falls under the 'works' category, specifically building construction work, with the primary goal being to optimise the venue for Adult Learning courses. The contract was awarded to Acorn Works Limited on 31 October 2024, with the work period spanning from 1 November 2024 to 31 December 2025. The total contract value is £36,000. The procurement was executed through a below-threshold method, adhering to the legal framework of the UK Public General Acts 2023/54.

This procurement process represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the construction sector, particularly SMEs like Acorn Works Limited, to engage in public sector projects and expand their portfolio. Companies experienced in building refurbishment and construction work can find opportunities such as this well-suited for their expertise. As the project aims to enhance facilities for adult education, this tender could benefit businesses focusing on refurbishing educational and community venues. Such engagement not only fosters growth within the construction industry but also contributes to enriching community resources in Norfolk.

## Notice

Adult Learning use a variety of community venues to deliver courses to the people of Norfolk. An agreement has been made with Norwich Unity Hub for the service to use space in Carrow House. As part of this, the service would like to undertake a refurbishment of the proposed space to make it more suitable for Adult Learning's aims and purpose. Sarah Rhoden and management within Adult Learning are happy for this work to be completed as this work will provide a solid venue for Adult Learning courses for years to come as it will offer better value for money over other community venues currently used by the service
