Summary of the contracting process

Colchester Borough Council has awarded a contract for Architectural Design Services for a new community facility on Mill Road, North Colchester. The invitation for tender was open until 6th May 2021, and the award was published on 12th May 2021. The contract, valued at £46,500, is part of a broader redevelopment initiative within the Colchester Northern Gateway Development. This project aims to create a sustainable and welcoming space for local residents, with a focus on environmental considerations to achieve zero carbon emissions by 2030. The contract period is set to commence on 11th May 2021 and conclude by 5th December 2022.

This project presents significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) engaged in architectural design and related services. Businesses specialising in sustainable architecture or community-focused projects will be particularly well-suited to participate, given the emphasis on environmental impact and community engagement in the brief. The redevelopment initiative will not only enhance local infrastructure but also foster economic growth for local businesses, making this a valuable opportunity for firms looking to expand their portfolios in community services and design.

Notice Title

GB-Colchester: Architectural Design Services for Mill Road

Notice Description

Colchester Amphora Trading, on behalf of Colchester Borough Council are seeking Architectural Design Services for a new community facility in Highwoods. Situated on Mill Road in North Colchester, we are working with the Diocese of Chelmsford, St Luke's Church, Myland Community Council and appointed trustees to develop a welcoming, inclusive community space for local people. As part of the wider Colchester Northern Gateway Development, Colchester Rugby Club will move to the new Colchester Sports Park in 2021. Their old site will then be redeveloped to include new housing, healthcare provision and a village green bordering Mill Road. The forthcoming pedestrian boulevard The Walk will run alongside the site providing excellent walking and cycling access from further afield and the new community facility has the potential to be a building of significance in the area. Adjacent to the site is also a new 'Village Green' providing open space. Due to the move the former clubhouse building will be left empty. However, it is in poor condition and expensive to maintain. Therefore, we would like to explore options and recommendations to either: a) Demolish the existing building and create a new sustainable space from scratch - ideally using any materials than can be salvaged Or b) Redevelop the existing rugby clubhouse building into an attractive, sustainable community centre We would like there to be a strong focus on environmental considerations and carbon emissions in line with the Council's ambition to be zero carbon by 2030. Further details are available within the tender pack. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement. Prices shown are for Architectural Design Services only.
