The development falls under the category of 'General public services' and aims to enhance a significant B listed 1960s modernist civic building located in Elgin, Scotland. The procurement is currently at the planning stage, with the tender anticipated to be published in February 2025. Key dates include the commencement of on-site work in May 2025, and the project is expected to take approximately 20 months to complete. This tender represents a considerable opportunity for businesses involved in the construction and refurbishment sector. Companies specialising in modernist architectural restoration, theatre infrastructure, and public building redevelopments would find this project particularly suitable. With the involvement of notable design teams such as LDN Architects and several specialist consultants, the project is positioned as a flagship regional initiative that can significantly contribute to the local community and economy. Businesses looking to establish or expand their presence in the Scottish public works sector stand to gain considerably from engaging in this significant cultural regeneration project. ## Notice Moray Council requires a Main Contractor as Elgin Town Hall is being upgraded and extended as Phase 1 of the Moray Growth Deal Cultural Quarter. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Moray Council is upgrading and extending Elgin Town Hall as Phase 1 of the Moray Growth Deal Cultural Quarter. Elgin Town Hall (1957-61) is a unique B listed 1960s modernist civic building and home to Moray's largest auditorium (600 capacity, 431m2) and a thriving regional hub for community, entertainment and events. The refurbishment includes essential upgrades to the existing listed fabric of Elgin Town Hall alongside modern sensitive extensions including a foyer extension to the East and a studio/rehearsal extension to the South. Interior changes will vastly improve the customer experience (new raked seating, functional circulation, signature new spaces), M&E services, and theatrical installations and loose equipment. Improvements to the exterior (replacement of failing concrete cladding, attractive extensions, improved landscaping and approach) will create a welcoming beacon for the town. Elgin Town Hall will be a flagship regional project and a catalyst for cultural regeneration. A Design Team led by LDN Architects and including Thomson Gray, Harley Haddow, NARRO, Sandy Brown Acoustics, Charcoal Blue, Ironside Farrar and OFR have worked with Moray Council and Elgin Town Hall for the Community over the past year and are now ready to tender for a main works contractor. It is anticipated that the tender will be published in February 2025, with a view to concluding the procurement process and starting works on site in May 2025 for a works period of c.20months. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=DEC519797 | | Notice type | OJEU - F1 - Prior Information 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 | 6 Dec 2024 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 3 Feb 2025 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | 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 | MORAY COUNCIL | | Locality | ELGIN | | Post town | Inverness | | Postcode | IV30 1BX | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM2 Highlands and Islands | | ITL 3 | TLM20 Highlands and Islands | | Local authority | Moray | | Electoral ward | Elgin City North | | Westminster constituency | Moray West, Nairn and Strathspey | | Delivery location | TLM62 Inverness and Nairn, Moray, and Badenoch and Strathspey | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45453100 - Refurbishment work ## Release History - 6 Dec 2024 at 00:00 - Planning - OJEU - F1 - Prior Information Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=DEC519797 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=DEC519797 Elgin Town Hall, Main Works Contractor - Moray Council requires a Main Contractor as Elgin Town Hall is being upgraded and extended as Phase 1 of the Moray Growth Deal Cultural Quarter. ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.moray.gov.uk - http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=785069 - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000785069 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
