## Summary

The Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council is planning a procurement process titled "Music Services Relocation to Spindles" in the construction industry category. The initiative involves relocating music services from Lyceum to the Spindles former B&M unit, making use of back office storage. The process falls under the "works" procurement category and exceeds the threshold regulations. Currently at the planning stage, the final procurement route is yet to be determined, with updates expected by 1st July 2026. Upon conclusion of internal governance and approval processes, the tender may be advertised within the next 18 months. The project is located in Oldham, United Kingdom (UKD37 region), with a contract value estimated at £2,000,000, including a gross amount of £2,400,000, and is set to commence on 1st October 2026, ending on 31st May 2027.

This upcoming tender offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses in the construction sector, particularly those capable of undertaking complex relocation projects. The procurement method will follow an open procedure, allowing a variety of firms to compete, including SMEs. Companies specializing in construction work with experience in public authority projects will find this tender particularly attractive. As this notice serves as a preliminary announcement, interested businesses should prepare to monitor updates regarding procurement details to align their capabilities with the project's requirements.
