Description:

Gladstone’s Library wishes to appoint a suitably experienced architect–led multi-disciplinary design team with exceptional vision to provide design services for a prestigious new building and also re-develop the existing Grade I listed Victorian building and its landscape. This commission covers work for RIBA Stages 1 – 7, subject to external funding and planning permissions being acquired. It is important to note that at this point in time funding is only in place to cover RIBA Stages 1 – 2. Although the total project budget is yet to be determined as it will be dependent on the final design and funding, the aim is for the budget to be in the region of 4million GBP (including preliminaries, contingency, fit-out, construction costs, consultancy services and professional fees but excluding VAT). We will be applying to the Heritage Lottery Fund for approximately half of the funding with the remainder being sought from other grant funding bodies, charitable trusts, foundations and private donors. The maximum budget for this initial RIBA Stages 1 – 2 commission is 20,000GBP (excluding VAT). Please note that Gladstone’s Library is a charity and receives no regular funding from any source and so value for money at this self-funded stage is critical. The scheme progressing beyond the RIBA Stages 1-2 design and project management opportunity will be dependent on whether the Library secures further funding to deliver the new facility. In addition to design and engineering services, the successful contractor will also be expected to provide procurement consultancy and project management services including: - Assisting the Library in the planning applications and applications in securing funding; - being responsible for conducting the procurement (in observing EU procurement law principles) to appoint a construction contractor and interior fit-out for the Library; - Providing highways consultancy support by liaising with the Local Authority with regards the possible relocation of the vehicular access to the site and or reconfiguration of the current onsite parking arrangements; - Providing Exhibition, Access and Fire Safety Strategy consultancy services in relation to the design and operation of the new facility; and - Construction management support in acting as the main contact with the construction contractor, overseeing their work and monitoring their progress in relation to an agreed works timetable. In addition, at successful key pre approved stages construction work will need to be 'signed off' to allow payment for construction works to date and the draw down of external grant funding.
