What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionKala Sangam Arts Centre (KSAC) is an
intercultural arts venue based in Bradford city
centre and is an Arts Council England (ACE)
National Portfolio Organisation (NPO). It presents
two seasons of diverse performances annually;
engages children and adults through a range of
classes, workshops and schools' activity; and
delivers a year-round programme of artist
development and support.
The building is one of very few professional arts
spaces in the district, a true cultural hub. KSAC
hosts work not seen on other stages in the North
and a range of activity unique in Bradford. The
organisation plays a national role in the
development of dance and is the only venue in
the North prioritising support for South Asian arts.
KSAC was previously Bradford's main Post Office
and is a Grade II Listed building. Its
redevelopment will be a key capital milestone of
Bradford's UK City of Culture delivery in 2025,
removing physical barriers and opening access to
all throughout this important heritage building.

The appointment of a Main Contractor is being

are explained in the introduction to the
questionnaire.
A maximum of five companies - those with the
highest scores - will be invited to proceed to the
next, tender phase of the contractor appointment
process.
The tender stage is effectively the first stage of a
two stage traditional works procurement and will
be sought on a 60/40 Price/Quality basis. The
tender will cover the following; -
Price (60) will include;
- Preliminaries
- Pre-construction phase fees
- Contractors overhead, profit and attendances on
net costs.
Quality (40) will include;
- Establishing the capabilities of the tendering
parties to deliver this project
- Demonstrating the tendering parties can meet
the qualitative, environmental and/or social
aspects linked to this project.
Following appointment, the contractor will work
with the design team to finalise the design and
undertake second stage procurement, tendering
individual packages (including contractor
designed portions) to produce a Contract Sum for
the works which will provide KSAC with a
complete, fitted out building.
The Employer is not bound to accept the lowest or
any Tender.
