This tender is to cover the Energy Consultancy services for the development of RIBA Stage 4 designs and professional services required for the first of two Work Packages (WP).

WP 1 should be completed by January 2026 and WP2 should be completed by January 2027

Phase 1 - Pre-Construction Services (RIBA Stage 4)

The initial appointment will be for the pre-construction services, which encompass the completion of RIBA Stage 4 (Technical Design). The contractor will be responsible for providing detailed designs, ensuring the buildability of the design, and contributing to cost estimation, planning, and risk identification during this phase.

Phase 2 - Construction Works (RIBA Stage 5 and 6)

The ITT also includes the potential for the appointed Contractor to undertake the construction works, which cover RIBA Stage 5 (Construction) and RIBA Stage 6 (Handover and Close Out). However, the appointment for these stages is not guaranteed at this point. Upon the completion of RIBA Stage 4, a formal review will be conducted to assess the Contractor's performance and the project's requirements. It is anticipated that the decision to proceed to WP2 will be made within 6 weeks from the completion of WP1.
