The procurement method is an open procedure with a JCT IFC with contractor design 2016 contract. Businesses suited for this opportunity should be prepared for a construction period of around 7 months and a project budget ranging from £850,000 to £1,000,000.

It is proposed the existing building will be fully refurbished internally including the removal of all existing redundant plant and equipment. On the ground floor, two self-contained function rooms, will be formed, each containing storage, toilets and tea-making facilities. In addition to the function rooms a cafe bar will be created in the central rotunda of the building, which again will be self-contained, having its own toilet facilities and services along with a stock room allocated within the cellar. The first-floor layout will be converted into 3no. small, office units, serviced by toilet and tea-making facilities. The extension will create an additional 187m2 of new floor space and will be single storey, standing at a height of 6.00m at its highest ridgeline, reducing to 3.4m at the lowest eaves line to the north-east boundary. Remedial works will consist of extensive works to the roof and dormer windows and the replacement of all fenestration with modern casement window units. The extension will be a steel framed structure, located to the rear of the original building, filling the space formed by the 'embrace' of each wing. The walls will be finished with a high-quality, facing blockwork. The front boundary to Tills Road will be enclosed by 1.2m high, bow-topped, steel fencing with gates. The existing carpark will be resurfaced and re-lined to accommodate 16 no. car parking spaces and two accessible access spaces. In addition, 6 no. wall-mounted, electric car charging points will be provided. A raised external decking area will be formed to the front of the building to serve the cafe bar. The existing FW & SW drainage is dispersed via a combined sewer. New SW volume is proposed to be dealt with via new soakaways located under the car park, subject to testing of ground conditions. The works will be procured under a tradition single stage lump sum tender process under a JCT IFC with contractor design 2016 contract with an anticipated budget between PS850,000 to PS1,000,000. The construction period will be approximately 7 months. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d398415e-bd61-431b-9a28-5006514521de | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Planning, Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 11 Mar 2024 | | Submission deadline | 1 Dec 2023 | | Future notice date | 16 Oct 2023 | | Award date | 22 Jan 2024 | | Contract period | 4 Mar 2024 - 29 Nov 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £1,709,699 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SPROWSTON TOWN COUNCIL | | Locality | NORWICH | | Post town | Norwich | | Postcode | NR7 8EW | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH5 Norfolk | | ITL 3 | TLH51 Norwich and East Norfolk | | Local authority | Broadland | | Electoral ward | Sprowston Central | | Westminster constituency | Norwich North | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | DRAPER & NICHOLS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work ## Release History - 11 Mar 2024 at 11:12 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d398415e-bd61-431b-9a28-5006514521de - 20 Nov 2023 at 09:49 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2632fa46-58c5-4040-a744-b04027192d4f - 30 Oct 2023 at 15:54 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2632fa46-58c5-4040-a744-b04027192d4f - 20 Oct 2023 at 17:25 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2632fa46-58c5-4040-a744-b04027192d4f - 15 Sep 2023 at 12:38 - Planning - Planned Procurement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8309abae-c0b1-4ddc-960d-7b19e4766bb2 - 6 Sep 2023 at 14:00 - Planning - Planned Procurement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8309abae-c0b1-4ddc-960d-7b19e4766bb2 - 25 Aug 2023 at 15:15 - Planning - Planned Procurement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8309abae-c0b1-4ddc-960d-7b19e4766bb2 - 25 Aug 2023 at 14:59 - Planning - Planned Procurement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8309abae-c0b1-4ddc-960d-7b19e4766bb2 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d398415e-bd61-431b-9a28-5006514521de 11th March 2024 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2632fa46-58c5-4040-a744-b04027192d4f 20th November 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8309abae-c0b1-4ddc-960d-7b19e4766bb2 15th September 2023 - Future opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/a553ba29-822a-498f-b8a5-a3680e5527eb Invitation to Submit an Expression of Interest. - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/ff4e65e6-c2d6-49bd-85bf-dcfa44f4365e Includes evaluation criteria. - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/c338043d-c5e0-42af-9aab-bcfdf3933c36 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/330865c3-c346-4ab4-a364-804444ad72cd - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/75118385-258a-49d6-bafd-5fece3c19fac - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/a694b949-47f4-441f-a50f-c23165740665 (added 30/10/2023) - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/be61d743-d84e-4a3d-be1a-2771e6a66520 (added 30/10/2023) - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/9e37097f-c92f-45c7-b4b4-523edf5c0aba (added 30/10/2023) - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/ffe8a5e6-0905-4e25-8827-27d1662ed5b2 (updated 20/11/2023) ## Notice URLs - https://www.sprowston-tc.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
