## Summary

The Lincolnshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust is currently engaged in a procurement process titled "Cost Advisor," aimed at sourcing a Trust Cost Advisor or Quantity Surveyor to support their major capital projects for a three-year term, with the possibility of a one-year extension based on performance. This procurement falls within the construction sector, specifically focused on services, and is taking place in the East Midlands, England. The tender period concluded on 24th June 2020 and the value of the awarded contract stands at £500,000. The procurement was conducted using a selective, or restricted, procedure which has typically stringent criteria for participation.

This project presents significant opportunities for businesses in construction consultancy and advisory services, particularly those specialising in cost advisory roles for capital projects. Companies with expertise in preparation of various business case documents such as Strategic Outline Cases (SOC), Outline Business Cases (OBC), and Final Business Cases (FBC) would be particularly well-suited. As the Trust's major projects evolve and new opportunities may arise throughout the contract period, firms capable of providing ongoing support and adapting to shifting clinical priorities will find a favourable position to grow their business in a competitive landscape.

## Notice

The Authority seeks a Trust Cost Advisor / QS to provide P22 Cost Advisor duties to the Authority for feasibilities and business case generation stages to final construction and handover of its major capital project programme for a period of 3 years with the option to extend for a further one year period subject to performance. The duties of the role will include supporting the Authority in development of capital projects for business cases as required (SOC, OBC and FBC) and acting as the Trust appointed P22 Cost Advisor during the construction period of any projects that are approved. The Authority has undertaken a P22 PSCP selection process, completed on 26th March 2018, concluding with the selection of IHP. The successful completion of the Trusts first major project (Brant ward GMP PS3.2m) was achieved 13th December 2019. Potential major projects within the current portfolio include (but are not exclusive to): Project Stage Budget Business Case Value Works cost value Anticipated Construction Programme LPFT Female HDU OBC PS7m PS4.45m 11 months LPFT Acute Inpatients Re Provision SOC PS28m PS18.2m 21 months LPFT Acute Inpatients 3rd ward Pre SOC PS13m PS8.45m 14 months LPFT FWU Relocation Pre SOC PS1.5m PS1m 3 months LCHS Bourne Re Provision Pre SOC TBC TBC TBC LCHS Boston Re Provision SOC PS14m PS9.05m 14 months *Plus any other development within the time period It is anticipated that the time scales for this programme of works is extended over a number of years and would warrant a single lead Cost Advisor with occasional support as and when required. While this list represents the current programme of major capital projects the Trust cannot guarantee they will all progress to their next stage, nor that the appointed Cost Advisor will be involved in all stages of all projects. Other projects may be added to this list as clinical priorities change.
