## Summary

The Blackpool Council is seeking suppliers for the "Blackpool Courts Relocation - Feasibility Study - Further Competition - RM3741" contract. This procurement falls under the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services category, with a total contract value of £40,000. The procurement process is currently in the Award stage, having reached completion on 23 February 2018 and resulting in the award of the contract to AHR Architects Limited. The contract period extends from 1 March 2018 to 31 May 2018, and the delivery is expected to take place in the North West of the United Kingdom. The tender period has already closed as of 31 January 2018.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses in the construction and architectural sectors, particularly those looking to expand their service offerings related to feasibility studies and project development. As the procurement is open to SMEs, smaller businesses with expertise in site assessments, cost analysis, and project management are well-positioned to compete. Companies that specialise in innovative architectural solutions and urban development will find this opportunity particularly relevant as Blackpool Council aims to enhance community facilities through the relocation of court services.

## Notice

Blackpool courts currently occupy an outdated and ill-suited 1970's building at the heart of the Central Leisure Quarter site and which in practical terms, is dependent on areas of the Police for provision of operational facilities and services.The Council are investigating sites which will house a new court facility. The purpose of the feasibility exercise is therefore to aid discussions with the HMCTS and investigate in detail a series of alternative site relocation options, together with key development cost information and options appraisals.
