Planned Procurement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Eastbourne Borough Council is planning a public procurement process for the development of Devonshire Park, aimed at transforming it into a cultural destination. This project is classified under the construction industry and has a budget of £40 million, with the procurement scheduled to initiate by August 2015. The planned contract period spans from April 2016 to April 2020, with components potentially valued between £1 million and £12 million. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, and although this notice does not call for competition, it is intended to undertake preliminary market consultations to shape the project effectively.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for both small to mid-sized enterprises and larger contractors interested in participating in comprehensive construction projects. Businesses adept in construction work, particularly those with experience in multi-phase projects, will find this an appealing prospect as Eastbourne Borough Council is considering a range of contracting options, including separate contracts for different components. Engaging in preliminary market consultations may help businesses influence and refine project outcomes while establishing valuable connections with the council for future competitive opportunities.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Devonshire Park

Notice Description

Devonshire Park is owned by Eastbourne Borough Council who has an ambition to see it become a cultural destination and for it to be one of the most talked about locations in the South East. On the 18 March 2015 the Council's Cabinet approved the work to take the scheme to the next stage of achieving planning permission and estimating detailed costs to achieve a PS40m scheme (RIBA Stage 3). The Cabinet will receive a further report after Stage 3 (anticipated to be December 2015) at which time it will be in a position to decide, on the balance of risks, whether to go forward and commission the development. This notice is not a call for competition. The Council wishes to undertake preliminary market consultations with potential contractors to gain their input and expertise into the developing proposals and help it to shape the project to its greatest potential. Due to the estimated construction costs the procurement for the contractors to undertake the development work for the project will need to follow one of the procedures set out in the Public Contract Regulations 2015 and advertised in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU). The construction work will be phased due to the complexity of the site and the different and unique nature of each of the phases. The Council is intending to take this into account in the procurement process and approximately 70 weeks has been allowed in the programme, starting in August 2015, to undertake the entire procurement process. Within the overall envelope of PS40-42m there are a number of component projects ranging in value from PS1-2m, PS5m - 7m, and up to PS10-12m. As part of the development work the Council is considering letting each component as a separate contract as well as potentially letting as one overall contract. The Council are therefore very much interested in receiving responses from small - mid size organisations as well as larger organisations that could take on the whole project. The proposed timetable is as follows: Confirm Attendance at Contractor's Session: Friday 29th May 2015 17.00pm Contractor's Session: Wednesday 3 June 2015 10.00am Deadline for return of Market Questionnaire: Tuesday 9 June 17.00pm Invitations to Focussed Discussions: Thursday 11 June 2015 Focussed Discussions with Contractors: w/c 15 June 2015 For further details on the project please refer to the Prior Indicative Notice issued to OJEU by the Council (http://ted.europa.eu) with the title: UK-Eastbourne: Construction work.
