## Summary

The University of Derby has completed the procurement process for "Architectural Services for the CityHub MasterPlan," a project aimed at developing a comprehensive urban design strategy for the City Hub area in Derby, East Midlands. The contract, valued at £44,250, was awarded to Matthew Montague Architects following a competitive quotation procedure. The award was officially made on 1st October 2021, with the contract period running from 4th October 2021 until 31st December 2021. Procurement details indicate this was a limited tender process, with the end date for submissions set on 3rd September 2021.

This tender presents excellent opportunities for consultancies specialising in architecture, urban design, and regeneration, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that can offer innovative solutions for holistic urban planning. With a focus on enhancing existing assets and identifying key projects within the urban setting, firms equipped with diverse skills in master-planning and spatial zoning will find ample opportunities to drive business growth through successful collaboration with academic institutions and municipal projects.

## Notice

To develop the masterplan, the University intends to appoint a local consultancy that can deliver a mix of disciplines including spatial zoning, master-planning, urban design and regeneration. The masterplan should provide a holistic urban design strategy, exploring the connections and potential movement between elements of the City Hub and the wider University estate, coupled with access to the city centre, transport hubs etc. and establish some key opportunities for Hub development. The commission should focus on those areas of opportunity and maximising existing assets in the town but also identify key projects which could unlock the development potential of the wider Hub area.
