## Summary

The Coventry City Council is proceeding with the award phase of the public procurement contract titled "COV - Lentons Lane Cemetery Extension Phase 2." This project is aimed at providing architectural, engineering, and planning services for a 20-acre extension to the Lentons Lane Cemetery located in Coventry (CV1 2AA). The contract period commenced on 29 March 2019 and is set to conclude by 1 December 2020. The procurement was conducted through an open procedure, with a budget estimated between £1.5 million to £1.8 million. The contract was awarded on 16 May 2019, following a tender period that ended on 1 March 2019.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses in the construction and engineering sectors, particularly for those providing landscape architectural, civil, and electrical engineering services. Suppliers specialising in urban planning, drainage solutions, and environmental compliance are well-positioned to engage in this project, which aims to increase burial capacity and resolve flooding issues at the site. With the potential for long-term service provision and growth in related projects, firms committed to sustainability and community enhancement may find significant avenues for expansion in the Coventry area following the successful implementation of this initiative.

## Notice

The Services being procured are for Landscape Architectural, Civil and Electrical Engineering, Planning and principle designer services for the design of a 20 acre extension to Lentons Lane Cemetry CV1 2AA. By 2021 the burial space in Coventry will be exhausted. The Councils vision is to extend the Lentons Lane Cemetery (LLC) to include the agricultural land that bounds the LLC. As Lentons Lane will become the main burial area for the City, the proposal is to build on the scheme delivered in 2015. This will include the provision of surface drains to move water to a retention bed for natural filtration. This will eliminate the possibility of flooding issues currently being experienced in older sections of the cemetery. The current section allocated to the Muslim faith will be full within the next 6-8 months, with the surrounding free church areas hitting capacity within the next 2 years. This scheme will introduce enough burial spaces to allow provisions for the city of all ethnicities for the next 30 years. Quantity surveyor services will be undertaken under a separate appointment and as such we request a lead designer to provide following services: o Landscape Architect (Lead) o Civil & Electrical Engineering o Planning o Principle Designer The lead consultant will be expected to provide advice on any additional surveys required. The construction value is anticipated to be: ?1.5 - ?1.8Million The key responsibilities of the appointment will be to; o Work closely with bereavement services to refine the outline brief o Develop a masterplan for the site up to equivalent RIBA Stage 4 o Obtain planning permission o Continue with a detailed design throughout equivalent RIBA Stages 4-7, assisting with procurement of the principle contractor o Liaise directly with Environmental Agency and other regulatory bodies throughout the process Key Drivers/Objectives o Complete a masterplan and design of the site ready for construction ahead of free church plot capacity 1-2 years. o Prioritise the construction of the new Muslim burial spaces before the plots reach capacity, estimated to be between 6-8 Months. o Alleviate the existing site drainage issues. o Maximise the site space to secure burial capacity for all ethnicities for the next 30 years
