## Summary

Marden Parish Council is seeking a design team for the 'Design Team Services (RIBA stages 4-6)' project, aimed at enhancing the village of Marden through the construction of a new community centre and village green. This project falls within the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services industry and is situated in the West Midlands, United Kingdom. Currently in the Award stage, the contract's period is set to run from 1st February 2021 until 31st December 2023, with a total project budget estimated at £500,000. The tender submission period ended on 11th January 2021, following an open procurement method that attracted competitive proposals.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for architectural and construction firms, particularly those with experience in community projects and sustainable design approaches. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the contract's structure accommodates innovative design solutions and community engagement elements. The Marden Parish Council is open to suggestions that align with their aspirations for a fabric-first construction approach, potentially enabling businesses that can bring both technical expertise and community-focused insights to thrive through this project.

## Notice

1. Project Background It was identified that the Parish would benefit from a more focused heart to Marden village and as a result proposals for the site were developed which included the provision of a new village green and Community Centre. The site for the village green and Community Centre will be gifted to the Parish under a section 106 agreement linked to Outline planning permission for the New House Farm development site. 2. Planning Status Proposals for the Community Centre and village green were submitted as a Reserved Matters Application - No. 201008. The application forms the basis of the design for this appointment. 3. The Appointment Marden Parish Council is looking to appoint an Architect led design team for the completion of the Community Centre project. It is open to the format and structure of the team provided all activities for the completion of the build are included. As a minimum, remaining stage activities are likely to include (but not limited to): RIBA Stage 4 (Technical Design) RIBA Stage 5-6 (Construction & Hand Over) RIBA Stage 7 (In Use) 4. Construction Approach The Parish Council has an aspiration for the project to be delivered to a fabric first approach, ideally using the AECB Building Standard. 5. Project costs Outline project cost plan has been developed at RIBA Stage 3. Indicative budget in region of PS500,000 to include all fees, surveys, construction costs of building and carpark, landscaping, eco features and contingency. The Parish Council will need to take out a loan to meet this figure and has limited potential to extend this figure, so both the design and construction approach will need to be refined and optimised to meet the project objectives, though the Council will be open to the possibility of suggestions for items of self/community finish or the potential to go out for further donations both within the building and landscape work. As part of this submission, the tendering teams are asked to provide an outline project cost plan to show how this could be achieved. 6. Tender Submission Requirements For full details of Tender Requirements and application for tender submission envelope from Parish Clerk by 30 November 2020, e-mail: parish.clerk@mardenherefordshire-pc.gov.uk. Tender submissions should be submitted by 12 noon on 31 December 2020 by sealed tender in submission envelope requested from Parish Clerk. Additional information: Submission to tender time extended to 10.00 on Monday 11 January 2021.
