Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the Uplands Development involves Hampshire County Council seeking specialised planning advisory services related to utility diversions at a new housing development near Botley, Hampshire. The tender process concluded with a direct appointment to Gately Hamer due to the unique requirements of the project, which necessitated prior knowledge of specific agreements with the utility provider, SSE. The award was made on 26 May 2020, and the contract period commenced on 15 June 2020, lasting until 26 February 2021. The value of the contract is £70,000 and falls under the category of architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services.

This tender presents a business growth opportunity for companies specialising in planning and utility diversion services, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with relevant expertise. It is ideal for firms that offer specialised engineering or planning services and have experience in liaising with utility providers. Such businesses can leverage their knowledge of the sector to successfully compete in similar future tenders, as demonstrated by the direct appointment of Gately Hamer for this specific project, which underscores the need for background competence in complex utility-related planning.

Uplands Development - Provision of Planning Advisory Services in Connection with Utility Diversions

Notice Description

On the site of a proposed new housing development at Uplands, near Botley, Hampshire, existing high voltage above ground cabling mounted on pylons, belonging to utility provider SSE, is required to be rerouted and new replacement cabling installed below ground. This is a very specialist area of planning and valuation services. Gately Hamer were originally appointed through Arup on the HCA framework, however this framework has expired and HCC required the balance of the services to be completed via a direct appointment. The services to be provided by Gately Hamer consist of bringing to conclusion various agreements between the parties involved. It is not feasible to tender this award to other suppliers who would be disadvantaged by lacking the background knowledge to complete the service required.
