    Wolverhampton City Council is undertaking

    Preliminary Market Engagement in relation to the

    proposed Design and Build contractor procurement

    for the Bilston Health and Wellbeing Facility. The

    purpose of the engagement is to obtain market

    feedback on the proposed procurement route, form

    of contract, budget estimate, construction

    programme, phasing options, form of construction

    and key project risks.

    The proposed facility is to be delivered in Bilston,

    Wolverhampton, adjacent to and encompassing

    parts of WV Active Bert Williams Leisure Centre,

    Bilston Urban Village Medical Centre and Bert

    Turner Boulevard. The project is expected to

    include a new two-storey integrated health and

    wellbeing facility, associated public realm, parking

    and upgrades to Bert Turner Boulevard.

    Suppliers wishing to participate should complete

    the PME questionnaire and submit their response

    through the Council's e-tendering portal at

    www.wolverhamptontenders.com ↗

    (www.wolverhamptontenders.com ↗) by 13 November 2026 at 12:00.

    As part of the engagement process, the Council

    may invite participants to attend a remote market

    engagement meeting, presentation or discussion

    following the closure of the PME exercise. Any such

    sessions will be arranged directly with participants,

    and dates and times will be confirmed after the

    PME response deadline.

    All clarification questions relating to this PME must

    be submitted through the Council's e-tendering

    portal. Responses will be issued through the portal

    where appropriate. This PME is not a call for

    competition and does not commit the Council to

    commencing a procurement process or awarding

    any contract. Any future procurement will be

    advertised separately and conducted in accordance

    with the Procurement Act 2023.
