This tender is within the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services category and involves work at Shaftesbury, England (postal code SP7 8FR). The procurement process is currently in the tender stage with the submission closing date set for 31st January 2025. The project will commence on 19th February 2025 and conclude by 1st July 2026. Proposals, including alternative design optimisations or new designs, must be submitted electronically, with supplemental hard copies delivered to Shaftesbury Town Hall if necessary. This tender presents a significant opportunity for architectural firms, particularly SMEs, to participate in a community-enhancing project funded by S106 Developer Contributions overseen by Dorset Council. The project aims to create a central community facility, fostering social interaction, recreation, and inclusivity. Firms experienced in delivering RIBA Stages 4-6 and capable of providing innovative and cost-saving design solutions will find this an ideal project. As Shaftesbury Town Council already owns an approved design concept, architectural practices offering both base case implementations and creative alternatives can demonstrate their expertise and potentially secure long-term association with the council for future projects. ## Notice The Mampitts Community Hub (the Hub) will serve as a key facility for the local community, offering indoor and outdoor spaces to enhance social interaction, recreation, and inclusivity. This Invitation to Tender invites architectural practices to provide detailed design and construction-stage support. The scope includes RIBA Stages 4 (Technical Design), 5 (Construction), and 6 (Handover). STC has already procured, and owns a license for, a design concept that has been worked up by a previous architect to RIBA Stage 3. This design was used to gain planning and funding approval from Dorset Council (DC) for STC to deliver the Hub. STC owns the license for this design, and it is made freely available, in detail, for all tenderers to provide architectural services for its delivery. This is referred to as the Approved Design Tenderers must submit a 'Base Case' tender to provide architectural services to deliver that Approved Design. However, STC is also keen to receive alternative proposals that either optimise the approved design or constitute a new design, in order to fulfil STC's objectives for the Hub, and/or provide cost savings. Section 7 outlines how any alternative proposals will be considered. The Mampitts Community Hub project is being funded by S106 Developer Contributions overseen by Dorset Council. The project is set with funding conditions and is in line with Dorset Council S106 protocol for community schemes. If companies require additional time to submit a proposal (noting the closing date is 31st January 2025) then a formal request needs to be submitted to the Town Clerk by 13th January 2025. Submissions should be emailed to confidential@shaftesbury-tc.gov.uk. Hard copies (to supplement electronic submission) may be delivered to: Shaftesbury Town Council, Town Hall, High Street, Shaftesbury SP7 8LY marked 'tender private and confidential.' ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/053f97b5-c876-452e-9c36-9cb36b600036 | | 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 | 24 Dec 2024 | | Submission deadline | 31 Jan 2025 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 19 Feb 2025 - 1 Jul 2026 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | 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 | SHAFTESBURY TOWN COUNCIL | | Locality | SHAFTESBURY | | Post town | Salisbury | | Postcode | SP7 8LY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK6 North Somerset, Somerset and Dorset | | ITL 3 | TLK64 Dorset | | Local authority | Dorset | | Electoral ward | Shaftesbury Town | | Westminster constituency | North Dorset | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ### Codes - 71000000 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ## Release History - 24 Dec 2024 at 09:50 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/053f97b5-c876-452e-9c36-9cb36b600036 - 18 Dec 2024 at 16:31 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/053f97b5-c876-452e-9c36-9cb36b600036 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/053f97b5-c876-452e-9c36-9cb36b600036 24th December 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/6f61896f-25e0-45a8-98d2-de216e8ff934 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/c6b60be4-cd94-4ef6-a2a1-06d54249bb79 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/9ae5b991-17a4-48e1-8f42-e0729ce26876 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/18581945-b69a-4363-ae3b-0953f1c5c053 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/5ad0c3f3-6241-4bb4-a05c-a0e02c802b11 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/1566073e-8de0-43c9-b258-4e39270f46f2 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/7edc87e7-e060-4b98-9d6d-305b5447f921 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/a27dd0bf-5af8-49f1-972a-04eaa4572a10 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/0f2dcd4c-a282-46c4-84f1-77d74abdad22 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/8b2644f8-2daa-4251-b46b-fabb2d4fb0dd - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/080085c3-1713-48c2-9163-bd690fb32eed - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/ac79f569-9453-4603-9758-3685b0b8fe88 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/14e786e1-4f53-444a-957c-d42432b97ad6 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/58d3e51c-b5d9-490c-aa21-8a33e08296ed - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/28d47849-8c71-477d-874c-8c5e632cfdeb - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/355a376a-a1ca-4640-9fc7-5bee3055dbbb - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/04b403e0-f237-49f3-ba5f-556c1820931b - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/d71602e1-9350-4a28-9d5f-118029c146d8 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
