Notice Title

Development at Farmstead Drive, Edenbridge - Architect and Principal Designer

Notice Description

Sevenoaks District Council is seeking to appoint an Architect and Principal Designer to bring forward a new high quality development on the Spitals Cross Estate, Edenbridge. The Architect will be the lead designer and will be required to be the Project lead of the wider Consultant team. The community buildings currently occupying the site are at the end of their economic life and require substantial refurbishment. SDC are maximising the opportunity to redevelop the hall and its facilities and to replace the shop with modern premises and to provide new housing, including affordable homes. The sale of the residential accommodation would provide capital receipts to pay for these improvements. A feasibility study has been undertaken which reviewed several options with a preferred option selected from a viability and planning perspective. This commission seeks to appoint an architect-led design team to further develop the preferred option to prepare and submit a planning application and to ultimately see through the delivery of the development. The appointment of the Architect and Principal Designer will be for RIBA work stages 2 to 7. A fixed price fee submission is requested for all stages, broken down by stage. SDC will issue instructions to proceed on a staged basis as it wishes to reserve the right to break the commission at the conclusion of each stage. This Architect will be expected to attend all Design Team Meetings, Monthly Construction Meetings and make an allowance for other meetings as considered appropriate. The Architect may or may not be novated to the contractor, this will be determined during the tendering period.
