For the provision of Professional Services for Capital Design Projects

Tender description

The contract is intended to cover a multitude of unidentified schemes following approval for the Capital Programme with the option to extend for a maximum of a further two (2) years, one year plus one year. It is anticipated that one or possibly two Ward refurbishments could be undertaken during this period. The work is likely to be predominantly refurbishment, however, there may be some limited new build works included on the programme. Appendix A indicates schemes undertaken over the past three years, to give tenderers a flavour of what can be expected but not guaranteed. The Design projects will be subject to the works as identified within the RIBA work stages 2 - 7 inclusive. Stages 0-1 may be included occasionally although it is likely the Trust will oversee this work. These stages have, however, still been included in your schedule of rates. Lot 1: The essence of the appointment is to procure a 'One Stop Shop' design team, led by the Architect/Building Surveyor, however it is intended that all the sub consultants under the appointment have an equal role in taking responsibility for all aspects of design and delivery, including quality, cost and time. Under the 'one-stop-shop' principle, it is also intended that all consultancy roles are covered under the appointment of the Architect including but not limited to the sub-consultants listed in Section 8.0, where appropriate, acting in a spirit of mutual trust and co-operation.
