## Summary

Uttlesford District Council is advancing the Hatherley Court Refurbishment project, located in Saffron Walden, which involves remodelling a sheltered housing scheme encompassing 26 one-bedroom flats and constructing a modest two-storey extension. The procurement process is at the award stage as of July 13, 2017, with a contract value of £1.7 million. The work is to be executed using a phased construction approach, essential for the current residents, and the estimated contract sum for the works stands at around £1.6 million. The project is classified under sheltered housing construction work, and the procurement method is a selective restricted procedure.

This refurbishment project creates significant opportunities for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and experienced building contractors, particularly those with capabilities in managing sensitive construction projects within occupied facilities. Firms adept in phased construction techniques and resident engagement will be well-suited to compete. With ongoing demand for improvements in social housing, this contract could serve as a pivotal step in expanding a business's portfolio within the public sector.

## Notice

Uttlesford District Council (UDC) is looking for an experienced Building Contractor to remodel a poorly designed Sheltered Housing Scheme, comprising 26 x 1 bedroom flats (owned by the Council) and to provide a modest two storey extension. The site is located to the east of Saffron Walden Town Centre, at the junction of Radwinter Road and Chaters Hill. The scheme was originally constructed in 1991 and is in part two storeys and three storeys with a pitched roof. The building is occupied by elderly residents, who will remain in situ whilst works are carried out. Construction will therefore need to be phased, utilising up to five empty properties within the scheme. It is therefore essential that the successful Contractor has experience of working with residents living on site. The planning application, reference UTT/14/2948/FUL was approved with conditions by the Council on 13 November 2014. Full details of the application and associated documents are available to view from our web-site using the following link http://publicaccess.uttlesford.gov.uk/online-applications The estimated Contract Sum for the works, allowing for several phases, is currently estimated at circa PS1.6m (excluding VAT). If you are interested in applying to tender for the works, which will be carried out on the basis of a JCT Intermediate form of contract, please e-mail procurement@uttlesford.gov.uk expressing your interest. You will be required to send your completed pre-qualification information to the Council for consideration by 10:00 on Thursday 28th May 2015. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs).
