Published requirement description

The Contracting Authority invited submissions from organisations who could provide a Retrofit Works, including Consultancy

Services for at least the next 4 years in accordance with the requirements contained within Document 2a – General Specification

The contracting Authority has considered whether the Works could reasonably be supplied under more than one contract and whether

such contract could appropriately be awarded by reference to lots in accordance with section 18(1) of the PA 2023. Following this

assessment, the Contracting Authority confirms that the Procurement will be structured into three (3) lots as set out below:

a) Lot 1 – Consultancy Services (including Principal Designer)

submit a tender for Lot 1. The Contracting Authority requires that the consultancy role, including the Principal Designer function,

remains fully independent from the delivery of works.
