The process, categorised under Architectural, Construction, Engineering, and Inspection Services (CPV: 71000000), seeks comprehensive feasibility studies, techno-economic models and design plans for wind turbines at two council sites. With the submission method being electronic, the tender period is set to end on 23rd September 2024, and work must be completed by 14th March 2025. Key stages include a high-level assessment (RIBA Stages 1 and 2) followed by a detailed feasibility and design phase (RIBA Stages 3 and 4), dependent on the initial outcome. This tender represents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in environmental engineering, construction, and renewable energy solutions. Firms with expertise in wind technology development, particularly those capable of conducting comprehensive feasibility studies and detailed design work, will find this tender particularly beneficial. As the work is funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, engaging in this project could significantly boost a firm's portfolio and open further investment opportunities, aligning with the Council’s commitment to sustainability and environmental protection. ## Notice The Council wishes to tender openly for RIBA Stage 4 feasibility, techno-economic modelling and designs to build wind turbines on 2 separate council sites as shown in "Middleton Wind Potential Sites.png" and "SALC and Landfill Owership.pdf". This work is funded by UKSPF and must be delivered by 14 March 2025. The deliverables should be split into two work packages (WP). WP 1 should include a high-level assessment to RIBA Stage 1 and 2 standard (and in) and shortlist options, identifying preferred projects that could be commercially viable. WP 2 should be contingent on the outcomes of WP1 and proceed to RIBA stages 3 and 4. The cost of each work package should be separated and a decision whether to proceed onto WP 2 will be required before work starts. The output reports should be detailed enough to support a planning application. The techno-economic assessment and commercials should provide sufficient detail to form a robust business case and, critically, facilitate an investment decision to take the project(s) forward to RIBA 5 & 6. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The Council wishes to tender openly for RIBA Stage 4 feasibility, techno-economic modelling and designs to build wind turbines on 2 separate council sites as shown in "Middleton Wind Potential Sites.png" and "SALC and Landfill Owership.pdf".
