Description

There will be a market engagement event on 17th October at 2-4pm at King Edward VI Grammar School Chelmsford to outline the design and share ideas as to the solution which will meet cost and value criteria for the school.
This will be a contract to build a Sports Hall with some Community use for a secondary Academy to Sports England approved dimensions.
The aim is to produce a self contained 2,000 - 2450 sq metre space to Sports England dimensions including a 5 badminton court hall, fitness suite and gym. Built to Public procurement and JCT standards.
The aim of the event is to raise awareness of this project before proceeding to a formal tender process. This process will help contractors who wish to be considered for the tender process to understand the project timescales and our constraints, and allow us to outline the value for money requirements of the project.
The event will include presnetation of the designs which have recently been accorded planning permission and a short tour of the site of the proposed building. A request for Information will be issued which would allow interested contractors to indicate an interest in the project as well as to exhibit their ability to value engineer any significant areas within the brief.
This is not a commitment to proceed with the project or accept any tenders. Contractors should attend at their own expense.
We hope to commence the build early Q2 2017 and complete within 9 - 10 months.
