Purpose

Ipswich Borough Council is looking to develop
the former R&W Paul Silo on the waterfront and turn it into
multi-usage leisure based attraction,
with a roof top (and top floor) bar / restaurant / café
space – with ancillary spaces in the rest of the Silo for
further leisure-based activities.
 
To bring this forward a quantity surveyor is
required to work with the design team to provide cost management
services throughout the project delivery.
 
Following an open tender procurement process
through the Suffolk e-sourcing system, 7 bids were received.
 
The most economically advantageous tender was
received from Allman Woodcock for the value of £38,960.00
(excl. VAT).
 
The appointment cost will be fully covered by
existing capital budgets.

Decision

To award the contract to Allman Woodcock.
 
Reason:
To enable works to proceed within given
timescales.
