The buyer plans to initiate the tender process with a budget of £1,200,000 for the fiscal year 2023/2024, with expectations to allocate an average of £15 million annually over the next three years for school building projects, alongside approximately £10 million for corporate buildings. Key dates include the start of the contract period on 1 April 2023, ending on 31 March 2028, and a future notice date of 1 June 2022 for prospective bidders to prepare their submissions. This procurement presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specializing in design and engineering services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Suitable competitors may include architectural firms, quantity surveyors, and project management companies that can deliver comprehensive design services from feasibility studies to construction contract management. Given the focus on large-scale school projects and potential TUPE transfers of existing staff, businesses poised to manage both public sector partnerships and workforce transitions will find this an advantageous opportunity conducive to growth in the West Midlands region. ## Notice Staffordshire County Council requires the whole range of design services from feasibility through to construction contract management. Typical projects are corporate building extensions and refurbishments with occasional new builds but the majority of work involves the provision of new schools or school expansions. The council expects to spend on average circa of PS15m per annum on school buildings over the next three years on 12 projects. Corporate buildings work is less certain but in the region of PS10m over the three years. However, there is the potential for this to be significantly higher. The new arrangements will replace an existing outsourced design provision and it is anticipated that the new provider would be expected to receive circa 25 employees under TUPE transfer. The scope of services will be - Project design and management of project delivery - Architect services - Quantity surveyor and cost planning services - Mechanical, electrical & structural engineering - Principal designers for construction, design and management (CDM) advisory services - Master planning and business case support services - Contract management including frameworks, tenders - Project management for major and minor capital works projects - Procurement advisory services - Accessibility advisory services. - Property development including production of development/design briefs, asset management and planning for capital expenditure. - Financial and programming monitoring of commissioned projects/ programmes ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/98fb8e5e-35f8-4463-b5b4-0d4ed99c955f | | Notice type | Planned Procurement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Competitive procedure with negotiation (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 22 Mar 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 1 Jun 2022 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2023 - 31 Mar 2028 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £6,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | STAFFORDSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | STAFFORD | | Post town | Stoke-on-Trent | | Postcode | ST16 2DH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG2 Shropshire and Staffordshire | | ITL 3 | TLG24 Staffordshire CC | | Local authority | Stafford | | Electoral ward | Forebridge | | Westminster constituency | Stafford | | Delivery location | TLG West Midlands (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ### Codes - 71000000 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ## Release History - 22 Mar 2022 at 10:15 - Planning - Planned Procurement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/98fb8e5e-35f8-4463-b5b4-0d4ed99c955f - 21 Mar 2022 at 09:58 - Planning - Planned Procurement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/98fb8e5e-35f8-4463-b5b4-0d4ed99c955f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/98fb8e5e-35f8-4463-b5b4-0d4ed99c955f 22nd March 2022 - Future opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://supplierlive.proactisp2p.com/Account/Login# In preparation for the release of tender documents, potential bidders are asked to register their organisation on the Councils eTendering portal. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
