A Development Agreement for the development and management of a supported living accommodation and day centre

Procurement reference

RCT17

Procurement description

The Council is undertaking a competitive flexible procurement procedure to appoint a Supplier to enter into a Development Agreement with the Council.

The Supplier (Development Partner) will design, apply and secure planning permission for, construct, deliver and manage a supported living accommodation and a learning disability day centre at the former Garth Olwg Residential Care Home site, Main Road, Church Village, Pontypridd CF38 2DX.

It is anticipated that the development partner will secure relevant Welsh Government grant funding for the project. Dependent on the amount of funding secured the Council may be required to make a financial contribution as a top up.

The contract value in this notice has been based on the estimated full build cost and the Council does not anticipate paying this value.

A service level agreement will be established between the Local Authority and the chosen development partner once the facility is operational for the management of the relevant services including ongoing service charges and costs. The length of the service level agreement is to be determined but is anticipated to be around a 40 year period. The service charges and costs may be negotiated as part of the tender procedure.

Therefore the estimated cost provided for in this notice is based purely on an estimation of the void space over a 40 year period. The competitive flexible procedure allows the Council to carry out the tender in multiple stages, although the Council reserves the right to award the contract based on initial tenders.
