## Summary

Copeland Borough Council is initiating a tender for the architectural design of a café facility at Silecroft Beach, located in the North West of England. This project seeks to create a high-quality, eco-friendly building that supports local and visiting beachgoers. The procurement method is open, with the tender period closing on 16th December 2019. The contract is expected to commence on 6th January 2020 and conclude on 31st March 2021. The primary industry category for this initiative is architectural services, with a focus on both buildings and outdoor areas.

This tender presents significant opportunities for architectural firms, particularly those that specialise in sustainable design and community-focused projects. Businesses with experience in obtaining planning permissions, conducting ground works, and integrating utility services will be well-suited to compete. The project also encourages participation from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) looking to expand their portfolio within the public sector and contribute to the local visitor economy in the Western Lake District.

## Notice

Copeland Borough Council is seeking to appoint an architect to develop the design for a high-quality, eco-friendly cafe facility on the beach front at Silecroft in the Western Lake District. The requirement is for the successful contractor to develop the design for a purpose-built single-story building, which would become a critical tool in supporting the visitor economy in the Western Lake District as well as catering for the significant number of local users who currently use the beach for a wide variety of recreational activities. This will include obtaining all consents, planning permission, all ground works and the connection of services. The final drawings will then need to be fully costed and taken to the end of RIBA stage 4 ready for tendering for the construction phase.
