Description

The Big Shift Programme sits within the Lambeth Transport Strategy Programme and aims to move residents and businesses towards greener, sustainable and cleaner ways of moving around the borough.

The programme is made up of a series of projects which tie into the Kerbside Strategy priority areas and the Climate Action Priorities. Priority 2 of the Kerbside Strategy is "create places for people" which includes the goal to introduce a parklet in each of the 25 wards of the borough.

Lambeth Council are looking for an organisation to create and implement a catalogue of modular items that can be built into a parklet;

The Big Shift Community Support Grant will provide the opportunity for residents and community groups to be part of London's biggest parklet programme.

Parklets are a way of creating unique, public spaces for local communities to enjoy which place sustainability, community and safety at the centre of their design.

The brief outlines what we require from the organisation:
Catalogue, build and installation

Timeframes
The timeframes for this project are set out below;

1. Deadline for responses: 15th September 2023
2. Inception meeting: week commencing 25th September 2023
3. Catalogue completed: 23rd October 2023
4. Installation for Window One: January 2023

Summary of what we need from you
We are looking for a contractor to create a catalogue of modular items which make up a parklet. Applicants to the grant scheme will be provided with a standard parklet (as below) and given a budget of £1500 to fill it with additional items from your catalogue.

We are looking for a contractor who has experience working with parklets; is creative and innovative and is offering a range of items that will be used by communities. The items must also represent value for money.

Deliverables
Catalogue (design)
• Produce a catalogue of products which will be available in a digital format that can be sent via email and a non-digital format (can be shared as paper copies for those who are digitally excluded).
• The catalogue will go through an iterative design process between yourselves and Lambeth Council. Please include this time in your quote.
• The catalogue will have options for creating a standard parklet:
• Base
• Side barriers: 2 x different styles to choose from
• Outer barriers: 2 x different styles to choose from

Please ensure describe how your base will fit flush to the kerb. Will the kerb have to be a certain height? Will the bases have extendable feet or will they be tailor made to each location, for example.

Detailed Description is attached to this notice.
