## Summary

The Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Councils are currently engaged in a public procurement process for the "Development of Sites" project, aimed at redeveloping their existing office headquarters in Ipswich due to a relocation. This tender, classified under architectural and related services (CPV code 71200000), has a value of £400,000 and employs a selective procurement method within a restricted procedure. The tender period concluded on 13 March 2017, with the contract expected to commence on 23 April 2017 and run until 19 January 2018. Interested parties were directed to the Suffolk sourcing portal to express their interest in the project.

This tender presents significant opportunities for architectural and consultancy firms, particularly those specialising in planning and cost consultancy services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate as the process is suitable for them. Businesses with expertise in redevelopment and urban design will find this contract particularly advantageous, as the contracting authority seeks a single contractor to fulfil all project requirements, making it a strategic opportunity for competitive firms in the East of England.

## Notice

Babergh District Councils and Mid Suffolk District Councils (the Councils) are relocating their office headquarters from Hadleigh and Needham Market to a combined, shared public sector location in Ipswich. As a result the current offices headquarter sites will become vacant and are to be considered for redevelopment. The Councils now wish to engage Architects, Planning and Cost consultants to prepare proposals for the sites to the detailed planning determination stage. The Councils wish to appoint one contractor only who will provide all of the required services. Please go to www.suffolksourcing.co.uk to register an expression of interest.
