The contract period is set to commence on 5 August 2019 and conclude by 31 July 2020.

The Grade II* Listed building is believed to be England's first purpose-built combined court and police station and includes the former police accommodation block and fire engine house. Designed initially by John Foulston and then by Theophilis Jones for the Duke of Bedford, the complex was completed c1848 and is constructed on the footprint of Tavistock Abbey. The project will bring back into use the iconic Grade II* historic building. The restored building will integrate a range of public services and local community uses with a World Heritage Site Gateway Centre and a Police and Magistrates' Museum. The work will be conservation-driven, aiming to maximise the enjoyment of the building's intrinsic character whilst minimising interruption to the historic fabric. A proportion of the work will be to improve the building's accessibility including the installation of a lift, adjustment to floor levels and and external ramp access. External work includes repairs to chimneys, roof parapets and gutters, lead work, roofing slates, flat roofs, rainwater goods, masonry repairs, new roof lights, windows and door repairs, and demolition of modern fabric. Internal work includes lightweight partitions, ceilings, insulating roofs, office fit-out, new stairs, lift, glazed 'fire station' entrance, interpretation centre fit-out, new electrical, plumbing and ventilation works. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/321a1570-60d0-4804-ab11-037fdfe650b0 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 7 May 2019 | | Submission deadline | 17 Jun 2019 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 4 Aug 2019 - 31 Jul 2020 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,350,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | TAVISTOCK TOWN COUNCIL | | Locality | TAVISTOCK | | Post town | Plymouth | | Postcode | PL19 0AU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK4 Devon | | ITL 3 | TLK43 Devon CC | | Local authority | West Devon | | Electoral ward | Tavistock North | | Westminster constituency | Torridge and Tavistock | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45262690 - Refurbishment of run-down buildings ## Release History - 7 May 2019 at 16:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/321a1570-60d0-4804-ab11-037fdfe650b0 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/321a1570-60d0-4804-ab11-037fdfe650b0 7th May 2019 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.mytenders.co.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAY157145 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://www.tavistock.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
