Summary of the contracting process

The Somerset House Trust (SHT) is currently conducting a selective tender for the construction of a new auditorium and public space at Somerset House, located on the Strand in London. This initiative, titled "West Wing: New Auditorium & Public Space," aims to enhance public offerings and foster a creative hub between the West and New Wings of the historic complex. The procurement process is in the final stage of tendering, with submissions due by 27th November 2019. The contract is expected to begin on 17th February 2020 and run until 30th September 2024. The tender falls under the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services category (CPV code 71000000).

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in design and construction services, particularly those experienced in large-scale arts and performance venues.

As this project aims to revitalise a central cultural location, it also opens avenues for collaborative efforts between creative enterprises and contractors, enhancing overall business growth in the arts sector.

Notice Title

West Wing: New Auditorium & Public Space, Somerset House, London

Notice Description

Somerset House (SH) is London's Working Arts Centre. We offer a ground-breaking arts and entertainment programme and are a home to the UK's largest creative community. SH is acknowledged to be one of the finest and largest public buildings of the C18th; being one of the most accomplished Palladian buildings in England. It is a Grade I listed complex.Somerset House Trust (SHT) wish to enhance part of its estate in between the West and New Wings to improve its cultural public offer, strengthen its identity as a hub for artists and creative enterprise and create a new public space that follows the route of a now lost historical connection from the Strand towards the river (West Street). Aside from the external courtyard area, SH does not have any facilities for large performances and gatherings of more than 200 people at a time. SHT is therefore seeking to identify and appoint a design team for a new 1,600 m2 auditorium and public space, known as 'West Street'.
