T22-119CAP Springhill Park Strabane Consultants PQQ Application

Descriptions

Derry City and Strabane District Council (The Employer) seeks to appoint an Economic Operator to provide the services of an Integrated Consultant Team (ICT) to undertake all RIBA Stage 0 to RIBA Stage 7 services, Inc. concept design, options appraisals, planning submission, statutory approvals, detailed design, IST procurement, Tender and contract administration. Whilst the ICT procurement and appointment will be intended for completion of all RIBA services stages 0 to 7, as noted earlier in 7.3.1, funding for the overall project completion has not yet been secured. Break clauses will therefore be inserted into the ICT ITT Documentation at various key project stages, such as securing planning approval, building control plan approval or tender completion, with progression to each of the next stages subject to necessary council approvals and the ability to secure the necessary project funding. In the instance funding for the construction stage of the community facility cannot be secured, completion of the ICT contract may be terminated at RIBA Stage 3/4. Working in close consultation with the Employer (DCSDC) and the Springhill Residents and Community Association (SRCA), the ICT will be required to provide a design that meets the strategic aims and objectives of DCSDC and the SRCA, and to manage (Subject to securing the necessary funding) the construction of the new community building and associated works within time, cost and quality requirements. The proposed new community facility will replace the existing, community owned, modular building which is twenty years old and in poor condition. The replacement facility will improve the experience of existing users whilst also providing the potential to bring new services and thus new users to the centre through the redevelopment of a shared and inclusive facility that supports users of all abilities, contributing to both the physical / mental health and wellbeing for young people and adults, including those with disabilities. It will also improve the physical appearance of the recreation/amenity site. Please refer to the CfT documents for further details.
