## Summary

The Sheffield City Council is initiating a tender for the renovation of the Telephone House Building, titled "PC05601 - HEART OF THE CITY 2 - BLOCK E TELEPHONE HOUSE". This project falls under the industry category of building completion work and is located in Sheffield City Centre, Yorkshire and the Humber. The tender is currently in the planning stage, with a submission deadline for the Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (PQQ) set for 18 October 2019. The total value of the contract is approximately £1,600,000, and the anticipated contract period is from 6 July 2020 to 18 December 2020. The procurement method is selective, following a restricted procedure.

This tender presents significant opportunities for construction firms specialising in refurbishment and building works, particularly those experienced in multi-functional buildings, retail, and office spaces. Companies with expertise in cladding installation, Asbestos removal, and general renovation would be particularly well-suited to compete for this project. The successful contractor will have the chance to contribute to the revitalisation of Sheffield’s City Centre, enhancing the area's appeal and functionality, which could lead to additional contracts in the surrounding region.

## Notice

The scheme entails renovation works to the Telephone House Building, which is designated as block E within the Heart of the City 2 overall programme of works within Sheffield City Centre. The objective of this project is to enhance the appearance of the building and surrounding location as part of the overall improvement of this area of the City Centre, address issues with the existing building and enable the installation of retail units to the ground floor. The building is situated in a prominent location and consists of vacant retail and entertainment units on the ground floor, an NCP Car park located on the floors above and student accommodation in the tower block above the Car park. It has been ascertained that the existing fibreglass panels and associated fixings to the Charter row elevation are in a poor state of repair and it is has been deemed that refurbishment of the existing units would be uneconomical. The preferred solution is to replace these panels with Aluminium fin 'wave' feature cladding, which will be designed and installed by the Contractor as part of this Contract. This cladding will also be installed to the Wellington Street elevation. There will also be painting and cleaning works to the existing parking decks, barriers, railings, windows, vents and concrete frames. There will be isolated repointing. Aluminium 'Goal Post' cladding will be designed and installed to shop fronts on the ground floor, although all shop frontage within these frames will be installed through a subsequent programme of works. It should be noted that Asbestos removal and strip out works will have been undertaken to the ground floor units prior to commencement of these works. The scheme also includes feature lighting, fencing and gates to be designed to match the Aluminium fin 'wave' cladding. The Contractor will design and install these items. The Contractor shall develop the design proposals accepted as part of their tender to enable construction, including obtaining planning permission and building control approval. Additional information: The PQQ and draft Tender Information is now available to download by logging into YORtender and searching for the job reference number SHEFCC001-DN438497-52588192. The PQQ's are to be returned electronically. Tenderers are advised to allow adequate time for uploading the documents to ensure that the submission deadline is met. The PQQ is to be submitted via https://www.yortender.co.uk/procontract/user.nsf to be received not later than 18 October 2019 @ 5pm
