## Summary

The Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service is seeking tenders for the construction of a new community fire station in Swadlincote. The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with submissions due by 5th June 2017. This project, classified under the industry category of construction work, has a total budget of £2,700,000 and involves the demolition of the existing fire station, followed by the construction of a new two-storey building, which includes a double bay vehicle garage and ancillary training facilities. The contract is planned to commence on 6th November 2017 and will be active until 2nd November 2018.

This tender presents significant opportunities for construction firms looking to expand their portfolio within the public sector. Businesses specialising in building and civil engineering, particularly those experienced in fire station or emergency service facilities, would be well-suited to compete. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, as this project may allow for innovative approaches and local engagement, making it an excellent fit for agile contractors focused on community projects.

## Notice

Demolition of existing fire station and associated outbuildings. Construction of a new 2-storey station building with attached 2 double bay vehicle garage with a total floor area of approximately 1270m2, ancillary smoke training building, associated external works and car parking. Bidders should note that it is possible that during the contract the fire crews may have to remain on site in temporary accommodation both for the crews and garaging for the appliances. This temporary accommodation would be arranged by the Contractor on the basis of a specification to be detailed within the Employers Requirements unless suitable off site accommodation can be sourced in a suitable timeframe. If the crews remain on site then the project will have to be suitably phased to allow works to be sequenced to allow the build to be progressed and safe access and egress for fire crews and appliances to be maintained.
