The Lead Consultant will act as the Contract Administrator. The Principle Designer for the project will be expected to manage from RIBA Stage 0 through to RIBA Stage 7. The Lead Consultant will be responsible for appointing all other design team members as required. The Council will appoint the works contractor(s) however the Lead Consultant will be expected to lead on the tender for the appointment(s), manage the contractor(s), and oversee the delivery (works) phase of the project. This includes developing the tender documentation and managing the works contract(s) to deliver the new permanent displays and associated spaces.
