## Summary

Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council is inviting tenders for a consultancy to manage the design of a new community sports facility, described as the new Cricket and Community Hub, at the Laurelvale Cricket Club site. This public procurement process falls under Northern Irish devolved regulations and aims to enhance existing provisions within a facility that serves as a focal point for local village activities. The tender is currently in the active stage and follows an open competition method, allowing for wide participation. Interested parties must submit their proposals by 13th January 2026, with the opportunity for queries closing on 6th January 2026. The designated region for this project is Craigavon, Northern Ireland, specifically targeting architectural and engineering services within the public authority sector of sub-central government.

The project's estimated value is £28,800, presenting a promising opportunity for consultancy firms specialising in architectural and construction management services. This tender offers business growth potential for firms that provide professional services in architectural design, engineering, and project management, particularly those with expertise in developing community and sports facilities. Since the procurement method is an open competition, it encourages broad participation, giving smaller firms an excellent chance to bid. Successful engagement in such contracts could enhance firms' portfolios and reputation, providing a platform for future opportunities within public sector projects.

## Notice

Tenders are invited from suitably qualified Consultancy firms for the Design and Project Management of a new Cricket and Community Hub on the existing site of Lauralvale Cricket Club 25 Mullavilly Rd. Tandragee, BT62 2LX. Since 1875 the grounds and facility has provided the focus for many village activities and functions. The club has just celebrated 150 years existence, and to mark this the Committee want to secure a viable long-term future for this established club and develop the facilities and activities that take place there. Over the years due to its location in the centre of the villages of Laurelvale and Mullavilly, many activities other than cricket now take place within the grounds. There is a real need to build a new, fit for purpose facility to host these activities. This capital project will kickstart the first phase of the club's vision - the building of a new community hub and changing facility adjacent to the current cricket pitch ground (Building B) This new single storey building will have a multi-use space where groups will meet and during the cricket season will also act as changing rooms. It will also have a disabled toilet and baby changing facilities. The new facility would allow for more programming of indoor activities, longer opening hours. Increase in usage of the facility will lead to increased revenues, all of which will be ploughed back into maintaining and developing other facilities in the club's vision. Council wishes to develop this project with a consultant.
