What is being bought

Published requirement description

Worcester City Council was seeking an experienced and proactive multi-disciplinary design

team to help bring forward their plans to refurbish and extend their Astwood Crematorium in

Worcester.

The proposed works include alteration to the existing footprint with improvements and

extension to visitor reception and chapel areas including a new Porte Cochere along with

partial façade recladding. As well as front of house the Council are proposing improvements

to back of house and operational areas including the replacement of the existing gas

cremators which are nearing the end of their operational life. A final decision is still to be

taken on either gas or electric cremators

The Council is inviting Tenders for the provision of the Design Team services required for the

delivery of the above.

Council approvals have been given to take the scheme to the end of RIBA Stage 3. Approval

to proceed with Stage 4-6 will follow the end of Stage 3 report and will be subject to capital

programme approvals.
