## Summary

The New Forest National Park Authority (NFNPA) has awarded a contract for Facilities Support to Baker Stuart Limited. This procurement falls under the Building Consultancy Services category and specifically involves initial preparations for moving offices by the end of 2026 or early 2027, covering the Strategic Definition and Preparation/Brief stages of the RIBA Plan of Works 2023. The contract is valued at £17,975 and runs from 2 October 2024 to 31 December 2024, with activities focused around Lymington, SO41 9ZG. The contract was initially tendered using an open procedure below the threshold, aimed at strategic planning and space requirements for the NFNPA's office relocation.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in building and facilities management, consultancy services, and strategic planning. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprises (VCSEs) will find this tender particularly suitable due to its scale and nature. Businesses offering expertise in hybrid working environments and office space optimisation can benefit from participating, gaining experience and recognition in public sector projects while contributing to the strategic enhancement of the NFNPA’s operational capabilities.

## Notice

The New Forest National Park Authority (NFNPA / the Authority) is seeking facilities professional(s) to assist the Authority in its initial preparations to move offices towards the end of 2026 / early 2027 - this date is when the lease expires on our current premises at Lymington Town Hall, Avenue Road, SO41 9ZG. We have around 80 staff at any one time and have hybrid working arrangements in place that allow staff to work from home for part of the week. Current office occupancy varies but usually it falls anywhere between 15 - 45 staff on site at any one time. This initial contract is expected to cover Stages 0 and 1 of the RIBA Plan of Works (2023) i.e. Strategic Definition and Preparation/Brief. The reviews / planning at this stage should be general in nature, round the future space and operational requirements of the Authority, and not be site-specific / consist of any precise designs.
