## Summary

The Board of Trustees of the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew is seeking tenders for the "55 Kew Green Refurbishment" project, which falls under the construction industry category. This procurement is currently at the Tender stage, with submissions required by 14 June 2022. The location of the project is Richmond, England, and it has an estimated value of £1,915,794. The process follows a restricted procurement method as outlined under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for construction firms, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to engage in a prominent refurbishment of a Grade II listed building, which has the potential for long-term residential use. Businesses specialising in construction, historic building restoration, and infrastructure services would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, harnessing their expertise to restore a key heritage asset to a stable condition.

## Notice

Background The property, 55 Kew Green, is a Grade II listed building. Originally dating from the late 17th century, the house was enlarged in 1855. Known as Herbarium House, the property has a long association with Kew having housed Keepers of the gardens since its construction. However, in the last 30 years, with fewer staff living on site, the building has become unoccupied and fallen into disrepair. The building is now in a poor state of repair and requires a complete overhaul to return it to a sound, stable condition. This includes all the building services and infrastructure, which are now at the end of their useful life. Scope of Work The poor condition of 55 Kew Green prompted a review of the asset and its potential uses. This process has concluded with the recommendation that the building be repaired and extended to provide a long term private residential let. The key objectives and instructions for submissions are explained in the accompanying tender documents. This PQQ has been issued by RBGKEW in connection with a competitive procurement with restricted procedures under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 ('the regulations').
