What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Board of Trustees of the Royal Botanic Gardens ("RBGKEW") wishes to establish a framework to undertake Building Services Engineer (M&E) support required to help develop, design and deliver projects within its programme of projects.

Background / Expected projects & Developments

Though considerable improvements have been made in the last few years, RBG Kew currently has a significant defect liability that requires action. The extent of the backlog and a method of identifying the most urgent works was drawn up in 2018 via the completion of a site wide elemental condition survey and risk assessment. This piece of work of has been built-on and aligned with Kew's Sustainability and Energy Plans, which are targeting a carbon positive estate by 2030, to create a new five-year programme of work across the two estates.

This programme consists of infrastructure improvement, refurbishment, and conservation projects. Though not all the projects within the programme relate to listed or protected assets, conservation knowledge and design experience is required to ensure the projects are developed in a sensitive way, respectful of Kew's status as a world Heritage Site.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “RBGKEW1056 ICW Building Services Engineer (M&E) Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
