This project is focused on the redevelopment of the Senate House Library located in London, with the intention to implement a new service model by 30 September 2018. The tender period ends on 17 November 2017, and the chosen consultant will begin work on 11 December 2017, with the contract lasting for one year until December 2018. The procurement method is classified as a limited competitive quotation, aimed at providing architectural design services as well as business and management consultancy related to the library sector. This tender presents a significant opportunity for consultancy firms specialising in architectural design, library services, or change management to expand their business portfolio. With the upcoming Supplier Engagement Day on 9 November 2017, potential bidders will have the chance to understand the project's scope, meet with the procurement team, and ask questions. Businesses experienced in higher education services, cultural services, or those with a strong track record in service development are particularly well-suited to participate in this procurement process, thereby aligning themselves with the growing demand for enhanced library facilities. ## Notice The University of London and Senate House Library are proud to announce an opportunity for an experienced and suitably qualified contractor to help deliver their Library Modernisation Programme over the next 3 years. Phase 1 of the Programme is to introduce a new service model by 30 September 2018, requiring a realignment of the current space on the fourth floor of the building. This will have an impact on floors 5 through 7 and has the potential to redevelop the entire 7th floor as a separate phase. The purpose of this tender is to recruit an individual consultant architect or architectural consultancy who can help Senate House Library reach their goal to provide world class research facilities and a premier researcher experience. The successful consultant will develop a client brief for a programme of redevelopment work on floors 4 through 7, where the new service model will primarily be delivered. They will also need to create an early stage design for the potential use of the 7th floor. There are 2 consultancy work packages required, for Space Realignment Consultancy Services and Service Development & Change Management Consultancy Services and note that we have advertised separate tenders for each. A third ITT pack is also available for those suppliers who wish to submit a bid for both services. All 3 ITT packs are attached to this advert and contain more information about the project and the contract that will be awarded. Suppliers are strongly advised to read these thoroughly before deciding to bid. Senate House Library will be holding a Supplier Engagement Day for suppliers to find out more about the tender and contract. This event will provide more information about the contract to be awarded and suppliers can meet the University of London Library and Procurement project team members. Suppliers will also have the opportunity to ask any questions they may have about the tender and contract: Tender for Consultancy Services for Space Realignment & Service Development and Change Management For Delivery of the Senate House Library Modernisation Project Supplier Engagement Day 9 November 2017 9:30am - 12:00pm University of London Senate House Library Seng Tee Lee Room Malet Street London WC1E 7HU For directions please see this map to Senate House: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Senate+House+Library/@51.5209,-0.129121,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x48761b31e31ef41f:0xe17c7d5b78db95c2!6m1!1e1 Please contact Procurement Manager Stephen Regalado at procurement@london.ac.uk to confirm your attendance.
