Lancaster City Council is seeking quotations from suitably qualified and experienced Building Surveyors to review existing condition surveys and undertake a site inspection of Centenary House, Regent Road, Morecambe. Centenary House is a former Co-operative department store located in Morecambe's West End. The property comprises a largely vacant five-storey building (basement, ground, first, second and partial third floor/dormer level) extending to approximately 2,583–2,700 sq m Gross Internal Area. The building has been largely vacant for over 30 years, with part of the ground floor occupied by a retail tenant. The Council's longer-term objective is to dispose of the building to a Registered Provider/Housing Association for conversion and redevelopment as affordable housing. The Council has secured Brownfield Land Release Fund (BLRF) grant funding to address abnormal development costs that currently affect the viability of redevelopment. The available budget for the remediation works is approximately £450,00

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 71. The category anchor is Architectural and related services (71200000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.
| Comparison set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 71 | 6,531 | 4 median · 31.4 average (2,339 of 6,531 with a bid count) | 4.2 average (2,603 of 6,531 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 5 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Similar published value (0.5×–2×) | 132 | 4 median · 4 average (1 of 132 with a bid count) | 1 average (1 of 132 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.
Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
No planning milestones published.
No linked framework, prior procurement or reprocurement published.
Diagnostic view. “Not published” means this current release does not provide a value.
