2122-28-FDR-LW Programme and Project Support Partner

Tender description

Sheffield Hallam University is seeking to adopt a hybrid in-house / external team working collaboratively to deliver the full programme of minor works construction projects, with early contractor involvement on all projects. The external team will consist of: · A Programme and Project Support Partner (PPSP) via an NEC4 Professional Services Short Contract (PSSC) for each project or specific task commission. The PPSP will provide Project Management (PM), Quantity Surveyor (QS), Principal Designer (PD), Building Surveying, NEC4 Supervisor and Design services to deliver the programme of works. To be appointed following THIS tender reference 2122-28-FDR-LW. · A competent Principal Contractor to become our Campus Works Partner (CWP) single supplier via an NEC4 Framework Contract, with various NEC4 call-off contract options. To be appointed following tender; reference 2122-27-FDR-LW The expectation is that through a collaborative working approach with the CWP and PPSP using a suite of NEC4 contracts, we will be best positioned to deliver the programme of minor works (projects under the value of £1m each, with a very few in the £1m to £3m band) over the next 4 years. The Estates team will work with the CWP and PPSP at a programme level to develop the projects to be delivered through this framework, adopting a flexible approach which will allow the best fit 'partner' to lead at a given RIBA stage determined by complexity of design requirements, extent of stakeholder input required in design and scale of project. Programme & Project Support Partner Following this tender, a framework will be established for the Programme & Project Support Partner to work in partnership with the University and Others to facilitate the delivery of all minor works and maintenance projects up to the value of £1 million including contingency plus VAT. It will also provide flexibility to help deliver some projects between £1 million including contingency plus VAT and £3 million including contingency plus VAT when required. The chosen Programme & Project Support Partner will have the ability to provide core services include the following roles: Programme Lead, Project Manager, Quantity Surveyor, Principal Designer, NEC4 Supervisor, Building Surveyor and provision to subcontract construction design and engineering services to deliver the Programme of Works in partnership with the Campus Works Partner, the Client and others. This will provide greater resilience and flexibility over the potential 4 year period. In terms of the PPSP consultant fee we estimate this to be circa £2 - £3 million GBP over the 4 year service period. Apply via Sheffield Hallam University In-Tend site https://in-tendhost.co.uk/sheffieldhallamuniversity/aspx/Home Additional information: We need a PPSP who has the technical expertise to work with us to deliver the programme of works with the CWP. The PPSP will act at programme and project level to provide Programme Lead, Project Management, Building Surveying, Quantity Surveying, Principal Designer, Design services and NEC4 Supervisor roles. The function of these roles is to work collaboratively with the in-house Estates & Facilities team and with the CWP to deliver projects within this framework. The PPSP will be the primary provider of design services (Architect, Building Surveying, MEP Services design, Structures) for all non-Alliance projects based upon the design complexity matrix. See framework contract and associated appendices for further details. The PPSP will also include the option to provide additional resource to support the in-house Estates & Facilities team via secondments or task specific commissions if required. The majority of projects anticipated to be delivered as part of this framework will be low to medium value and may be grouped into programmes of work. We need a proactive PSSP who has the capability and resource to work collaboratively with the other partners to deliver all projects within this framework and occasionally this will include the ability to be able to respond reactively to urgent situations. We wish to work with the PPSP to develop a best practice approach to delivering the programme of works within this hybrid model in terms of quality standards of work delivered, continual improvement and developing the maturity levels of the framework year on year. With this in mind, the PPSP should be able to provide a consistent team for the duration of the framework, whilst accepting there may be changes in personnel across the life of the framework.
