Summary of the contracting process

Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council appointed a consultant for the creation of office accommodation in Glengormley town centre. The work covers construction management services, including project management consultancy, for the office regeneration project. Delivery is in the Glengormley area of Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland. The council is the commissioning public authority and buyer. The requirement is therefore relevant to architectural, construction consultancy, project management and integrated consultant teams with experience of developing public or commercial office accommodation. It may also suit firms providing construction management input, coordinating design and works information, and supporting delivery of town-centre regeneration schemes. The named appointed supplier, Rolston Architects, is recorded as an SME, indicating that the requirement was not limited to a large national consultancy.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective restricted procedure. Rolston Architects was appointed for the requirement. One award and contract is recorded at £235,177 (GBP), signed on 16 November 2021. A second award and contract is recorded separately at £345,711 (GBP), also signed on 16 November 2021; these values are not combined. The second contract has a duration of 1,560 days and was amended to add £110,000 excluding VAT and extend the term by 12 months. The amendment cites unforeseen Covid-19 impacts on working practices and workplace environments, changes to the office design and Works Information, additional consultant input, and delay to the works contract. The tender deadline was 6 August 2021 at 12:00. Evaluation was based on quality at 25% and price at 75%.

This procurement demonstrates a council requirement for a consultancy able to support office regeneration from design development through construction management and coordination with the works contract. A credible competitor would need an integrated team with architectural, project management, construction management and design coordination capability, together with experience of adapting workplace schemes when operational requirements change. The amendment shows the importance of responding to changing working practices, including remote working and hotdesking, and of revising design and Works Information without losing control of delivery. Firms should be able to manage programme impacts, provide additional input when construction packages are delayed or altered, and work effectively with a local authority. An SME was appointed, so a suitably experienced smaller practice or consortium could be commercially relevant when comparable office projects return to market.
