## Summary

The procurement process for the Edinburgh Printmakers project, led by Edinburgh Printmakers c/o Gardiner & Theobald LLP, focuses on the redevelopment of a Category C Listed building in Fountainbridge, Edinburgh. The project, titled "Edinburgh Printmakers - Main Contractor", falls under the works category and utilises a selective procurement method through a restricted procedure. The contract was awarded on 31 March 2017, and the procurement stage is now complete, with the project scope including comprehensive internal and external refurbishments over approximately 2,000 square metres, alongside the construction of two new extensions totalling around 500 square metres.

This tender presents significant opportunities for construction and refurbishment businesses, particularly those specialising in heritage and conservation projects, due to the listed status of the building and its distinct requirements. Companies proficient in restoration techniques, energy-efficient solutions, and creative construction methodologies would be well-positioned to compete. Engaging with this type of project can enhance a firm’s portfolio while contributing to the revitalisation of cultural facilities in the Edinburgh area.
