The Council is targeting to have awarded this contract by October 2022, commencing works on site by the end of November 2022, completing late 2023/early 2024. The Council will run the procurement process in line with the Restricted Procedure as set out within the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and establish a shortlist of 5 - 6 contractors who will subsequently be invited to tender for the design and construction of the new extra care facility. The successful contractor with the responsibility for finalising the design and delivering the new building and landscaping works, will be expected to co-ordinate and take on the role of Principal Contractor under the CDM Regulations for the various design and works activities.

The Contractor will be responsible for the final deliverable design, including but not limited to the architectural, structural, landscape and mechanical and electrical services design.
