## Summary

Lancaster City Council has completed the tendering process for RIBA Stage 4 Technical Designs and Professional MEP Services to support building decarbonisation projects at three historical buildings in Lancaster: Williamson Park, The Storey, and City Lab. This initiative falls under the Architectural, Construction, Engineering, and Inspection Services category (CPV: 71000000) and forms part of the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS) - Phase 3c. The project is divided into two work packages, with WP 1 focused on design, planning, and procurement from 2024 to October 2024, and WP 2 addressing delivery, installation, commissioning, and handover from 2025 to 2026. The procurement used an open procedure and culminated in the awarding of the contract on 11th July 2024 to Ridge and Partners LLP, valued at GBP 402,903.

This tender presents considerable opportunities for businesses specialising in technical design, engineering, and professional MEP services, particularly those with experience in heritage building conservation and energy efficiency.
