two.1.4) Short description
Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (MCHFT) is issuing this Invitation to Tender ("ITT") in connection with the competitive procurement of Cost Manager Services for the New Leighton Hospital.
This procurement will be run via an Open Procedure under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 ("PCR").
MCHFT is in the initial stages of a new project to construct a new hospital, which will replace the existing Leighton Hospital which is affected by Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC) throughout circa 80.00% of its buildings. The vision for the project is to design and build a new state of the art hospital that will play a vital role at the heart of the community, placing digital innovation at the forefront of health services designed to tackle inequalities and meet the needs of a growing and ageing population. The ambition is that this project will transform the quality of healthcare for the people of Cheshire and across the Northwest of England.
The purpose of this procurement exercise is to appoint a Cost Manager to provide services covering RIBA Stages 2 to 3. Bidders are to note that the appointment is through to completion of the Outline Business Case which is currently targeted as July 2025.
The estimated total contract value for RIBA Stages 2 to 3 (including the Outline Business Case) is £150,000.00
The project is currently concluding RIBA Stage 1 and is due to commence RIBA Stage 2 in June 2024. Bidders are expected to commence services on 14th May 2024.
The Authority reserves the right to extend the contract for the Cost Manager beyond RIBA stage 3 (including Outline Business Case delivery) without the need for a further procurement exercise. In exercising its discretion to extend, the Authority will consider the successful bidder’s performance up to the point it is considering any extension and whether any benefit to the overall programme to extending with the current supplier outweighs any potential benefit in carrying out a further procurement exercise.
Bidders are to note that the design may reach a fully complete RIBA stage 3 by the end of the Outline Business Case and therefore fees are to be on the basis of this.
The tender is being run via the ATAMIS e-tendering Portal which can be found at https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome ("the e-sourcing Portal").
