Purpose

This report sets out a proposed approach to the procurement of contractors to deliver the Repurposing project at Hampden Children’s Centre, NW1 1HQ.  We propose to tender these works to a pre-selected list of suitably experienced tenderers using a single stage selective tendering procedure. The works to be commissioned include alterations to reconfigure the building and a variety of condition improvement works.

The tender list will be drawn up from companies in the market for these works and due diligence checks including health and safety and financial checks and pre-tender enquiries will be carried out prior to finalising the list.

The estimated contract value is £541,000.

The works are to take approximately 12 weeks with sectional completion.  The works are to be procured via a closed tender process using a JCT Intermediate Building Contract with contractor’s design (ICD) 2016, with Camden amendments.

The procurement strategy report will subsequently be presented to the Director of Property Management for approval in line with Contract Standing Orders.  The use of a closed tender process for a below threshold procurement complies with Contract Standing Orders (CSOs).
