Description
Manchester Cathedral is seeking to appoint a Quantity Surveyor / Cost Consultant to support its NLHF part-funded project. The appointment will cover both the Development Stage (running to March 2027 and the preparation of the NLHF Round 2 submission) and, subject to funding, the Delivery Stage.
The appointed QS will provide full cost consultancy services across the development of the scheme, including cost planning, value engineering, risk management, procurement advice, cashflow forecasting, tender documentation and ongoing support to the project manager and design team. The proposed form of appointment is the RIBA Professional Services Contract 2020 - Quantity Surveyor Services (PSC 2020) or equivalent.
The Delivery Stage (anticipated 36 months) will only proceed subject to NLHF Round 2 funding and all necessary approvals. Applicants will provide separate fee proposals for the Development Stage and the conditional Delivery Stage at tender.
This procurement is being run in two stages:
• Stage 1 - PQQ: assessment of technical capacity, general approach and references (as set out in the PQQ).
• Stage 2 - ITT: shortlisted applicants submit full tenders including fee proposals.
