This procurement is classified under the construction industry within the British Overseas Territories and is currently in the tender stage, with the deadline for submissions set for 24th October 2018. The project aims to construct a Pavilion for Expo 2020, which must be completed by October 2020, following a strict timeline that includes the shell and core phase completion by 20th October 2019, and the fit-out by 20th July 2020. This tender presents a significant opportunity for companies in the construction sector, especially those with specialised skills in innovative design and sustainable building practices. Businesses that excel in collaborative project execution and have experience with large-scale constructions, particularly those able to meet tight project deadlines, would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The potential for involvement in a high-profile international event like Expo 2020 further adds to the growth opportunities for qualifying firms. ## Notice Department for International Trade requires a solution for the Construction of the Pavilion at Dubai Expo 2020. The Pavilion will consist of a self-build country Pavilion with an accompanying business and cultural programme. The Pavilion is required to be built in accordance with the design theme of 'Innovating for a Shared Future' as interpreted by the winning design while adhering to the Expo 2020 Dubai guidelines. The structure for the Pavilion will need to be built to enhance the architectural vision, allow for innovation and ensure it is sustainable through utilisation of well tested and approved construction methodology and materials. The scope of the Construction includes the supply and construction of the shell & core, fit-out including - inter alia - all set work, internal walls, ceilings, floors, plinths, display unit, finishes, graphics, electricals, lighting, interfacing works and exhibition, maintenance, takedown and possible legacy. Legacy works may include but not limited to, the careful dismantle and packaging of the entire Pavilion, parts of the Pavilion and/or main exhibit for transportation and re-erection to a new site either within or outside of the UAE. The Pavilion will need to have the capacity to cope with a high level of visitors and free flow of visitors to enhance visitor experience. The Pavilion will need to be ready by October 2020 to welcome visitors. To achieve this, the construction stage of this requirement will follow a very tight programme timeline. The critical path on the construction is to ensure the completion of the shell and core by 20th October 2019, followed by the completion of fit-out by 20th July 2020 and the final exhibition installation to be completed by 20th September 2020. The Contractor will be required to work collaboratively with the Design Contractor of the Pavilion to finalise technical design (RIBA Stage 4) and buildability of the Pavilion. The Contract will be awarded on the basis of MEAT which will include an assessment of quality/technical and price at Stage 2 of the competitive dialogue process. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6b557009-e85a-477f-96b4-502005be7605 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Competitive dialog | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 21 Sep 2018 | | Submission deadline | 24 Oct 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2019 - 10 Oct 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £17,000,000 | | 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 | DEPARTMENT FOR INTERNATIONAL TRADE | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1A 2AW | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work ## Release History - 21 Sep 2018 at 10:44 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6b557009-e85a-477f-96b4-502005be7605 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6b557009-e85a-477f-96b4-502005be7605 21st September 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=05eb0b3c-4cb7-e811-80ed-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/uk-trade-investment ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
