Description

The Corporate Officer of the House of Lords and the Corporate Officer of the House of Commons acting jointly (the Contracting Authority) seeks expressions of interest from suitability qualified and experienced economic operators to enter into a four year framework agreement (Authority's reference: FWK1097) to provide multi-disciplinary architectural and engineering design services for the Authority's Strategic Estates' various business as usual projects over a 4 year term. The on-going planned and reactive works to the buildings within the estate include building refurbishment, new build and maintenance projects. The projects and services will utilise the RIBA Plan of Work 2013 and will be carried out to BIM Level 2. The Framework Consultants may be appointed to fulfil projects that fall under other strategic programmes that Strategic Estates is supporting.

Economic operators to be appointed will be practices able to provide an in-house architectural lead with a proven track record of working on projects involving prestigious buildings of significant historical interest, with demonstrable experience of having integrated innovative engineering solutions, within conservation/listed building constraints. For the purposes of the CDM Regulations, in most instances the appointed consultants will be the Principal Designer.

It is envisaged that the majority of individual projects will be progressed by the Authority to planning/design-brief stage whereupon the Authority will then commence the procurement of contractors to carry out the works.
