This initiative falls within the architectural and related services category, and the location for the project is the former White Oak Leisure Centre car park in Swanley, Kent. The tender is currently in the active stage, with a submission deadline set for 25 February 2022. The overall value of the contract is estimated at £490,000, and the planned execution will cover RIBA work stages 2 to 7 over a duration of 1080 days. Interested parties can submit their bids electronically through the myTenders platform. This tender presents a significant opportunity for architecture firms and design consultancies looking to grow their business. Companies with expertise in residential planning and design, especially those familiar with large-scale projects involving multiple dwellings, will find this tender particularly relevant. The award criteria emphasise quality aspects such as understanding the client's brief, previous experience, and innovative solutions, alongside price considerations. Therefore, businesses that can demonstrate robust portfolios and a strategic approach are well-positioned to compete effectively for this contract. ## Notice Sevenoaks District Council is seeking to appoint an Architect to bring forward a new residential development on the site of the old White Oak Leisure Centre car park. The Architect and Principal Designer will be the lead designer and will be required to be the project lead of the wider consultant team. The site has previously received outline planning permission for a residential quarter of up to 41 new dwellings. A feasibility study has since been undertaken which has explored options to provide 81 dwellings of 1,2 3 and 4 bed flats along with 11 two-storey town houses. This option was selected from a viability and planning perspective. The appointment of the Architect and Principal Designer will be for RIBA work stages 2 to 7. SDC will issue instructions to proceed on a staged basis as it wishes to reserve the right to break the commission at the conclusion of each stage. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Sevenoaks District Council is seeking to appoint an Architect to bring forward a new residential development on the site of the old White Oak Leisure Centre car park.
