The project is set in Southend-on-Sea, within the South East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method used is an open procedure, with the tender period concluding on 29th November 2017, and a contract period beginning on 4th January 2018, lasting until 3rd January 2020. Interested parties had deadlines for accessing tender documents by 21st November 2017 and for submitting qualifications and responses by 29th November 2017. This procurement presents significant opportunities for architectural firms and professionals, particularly those specialising in community and arts projects. Small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as they can contribute innovative ideas and support for the development of this cultural hub. The project not only aims to enhance local artistic resources but also creates a supportive venue for emerging artists, thus fostering community engagement and artistic diversification in Southend-on-Sea. ## Notice Southend-on-Sea Borough Council invites electronic Tender Responses for Architectural Services relating to the opening of Artists Studios. This project will look to provide support for Focal Point Gallery (FPG), in partnership with The Beecroft Trust, to convert the Station Rd (Westcliff-on-Sea)site into a much-needed complex of 20 rentable artist's studios, a community gallery and workshop space. It is believed this site would provide a large number of visual arts focused units whilst providing an income stream to the FPG to further diversify its income, help to diversify the gallery programme and broaden audiences.
