The tender involves the refurbishment of a 18,344 sqm area of the Barbican Estate to repair a damaged waterproofing membrane. The main tender is expected to go live in June 2023, with an advert period of approximately three months and a return deadline at the end of August 2023. The anticipated value of the construction project is between £10 to £15 million. This tender presents an opportunity for contractors experienced in works related to waterproofing membranes, drainage infrastructure, and landscaping. Interested suppliers, particularly those with a track record in delivering similar projects with a value of this magnitude, are encouraged to register their interest with the City of London Corporation. The completion of this project will not only address existing water ingress issues but also provide a more sustainable and biodiverse public open space at the Barbican, aligning with the City of London's Climate Action Strategy and Biodiversity Action Plan. ## Notice 1.1 Project Description The Barbican Estate is grade 2 listed with a multitude of uses including an arts centre, 2014 dwellings, exhibition halls, cinemas, restaurants theatres, gallery space and a large conservatory. Designed and constructed in the 1960s and 1970s by architects Chamberlin, Powell and Bon the Barbican Estate represents a prominent example of brutalist architecture. The publicly accessible podium provides a pedestrian only elevated walkway connecting the residential towers, terraces and the Barbican Centre. The existing podium is predominantly made up of brick tiles with areas of defined planting set within the podium. The existing podium deck and waterproofing membrane has become damaged and is leaking into the buildings below including the Exhibition Halls. The City of London, as the owner and manager of the estate, is currently undertaking a large-scale refurbishment of the podium deck. Phase 1 of this refurbishment was completed in 2015, this project will focus on Phase 2; a 18,344sqm area along the northern portion of the estate. Several more phases are expected to be required in order to repair other parts of the podium. An initial feasibility study was undertaken that demonstrated several reasons for this including: * the drainage system; * damage to the waterproofing; * shallow crossfalls; * detailing of the expansion joints. The podium deck needs be taken up to replace and repair the damaged waterproofing membrane. Works were completed on phase 1 in 2015. This project builds on the lessons learned from phase 1 for the area identified as phase 2. Surface refurbishment, replacement of waterproofing membrane, remedial works to drainage infrastructure, and landscaping works to Barbican Podium Phase 2, 1st Priority Zone. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Surface refurbishment, replacement of waterproofing membrane, remedial works to drainage infrastructure, and landscaping works to Barbican Podium Phase 2, 1st Priority Zone. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/007036-2023 | | Notice type | Planning Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 Mar 2023 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 2 Apr 2023 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £12,500,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Planned | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE CITY OF LONDON CORPORATION | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | Central London | | Postcode | EC2V 7HH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | City of London | | Electoral ward | Bassishaw | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | TLI4 Inner London - East | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work - 45200000 - Works for complete or part construction and civil engineering work ## Release History - 10 Mar 2023 at 11:49 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/007036-2023 ## Notice URLs - https://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
