## Summary

North Ayrshire Council has recently awarded a contract for the supply of Architectural and Lead Designer Services for the Ardrossan Community Campus. This procurement process falls under the services category, specifically in the architectural and related services sector. The contract has a value of £580,000 and was signed on 31 May 2021, with the project intended to create a highly energy-efficient building. The procurement was conducted through a Restricted Procedure, indicating a two-stage selection process to assess bidders' capacities before issuing Invitations to Tender. This process is now complete.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for architectural firms specialising in energy-efficient design and community engagement. Businesses with experience in urban planning, landscape architecture, and collaborative design approaches would be particularly well-suited to compete in this space. The involvement of established traffic and environmental consultants in the project also suggests a need for interdisciplinary cooperation, making this an appealing prospect for firms looking to expand their outreach in public sector collaborations.

## Notice

A lead designer/architect is required to develop design proposals for the new Ardrossan Community Campus. This is to be a highly energy efficient building and will be required to meet challenging energy requirements. The successful supplier must appoint an appropriate design team to support their activities and deliver the brief. Due to the complexity of the project, the intention of the tender process is to select a design partner rather than determine the finalised design for the new campus. This will allow necessary consultation and engagement to take place with all internal and external stakeholders such as pupils/parents, local community groups, local residents, sports clubs etc to prepare a comprehensive list of requirements for the project and to ensure functional, aesthetics and financial aspects are appropriately developed. Existing traffic consultants SWECO and environmental consultants EnviroCentre will be part of the above design team, as they have considerable prior experience of the site and its conditions which we wish to transfer into new team. This tender is using the Restricted Process. This is a two-stage procedure. The first stage is a selection process where bidders capability, capacity and experience to perform the contract is assessed via the ESPD. A shortlist of bidders will be identified from these responses. The Invitation to Tender will be issued at the second stage. Only bidders who are shortlisted in stage one will be invited to submit a tender. These bids will be assessed to determine the most economically advantageous tender.
