The Additional Opportunity Sites will not form part of the scope for the Project but the Council is hopeful that such can be included for discussion at some point in the future. Bidders should assume though that for now the scope of the Project will be confined to the Sites above. Please note that the Council will not be obliged to bring forward any Additional Opportunity Sites but the PSP will be expected to consider any proposals that the Council may put forward. The Additional Opportunity Sites are:
Site 4 - Bradshaw Street

At the request of the Council the PSP shall advise and assist with formulating any proposals to acquire a title interest in any relevant Third Party Land. If so requested by the Council the PSP shall then take the lead on negotiating commercial terms for the acquisition by the Council of the relevant Third Party Land.
For the purposes of this notice, the entire value and contract duration of all sites described above have been included, for completeness please refer to the breakdown below:

The Council is a local authority and therefore is a “contracting authority” for the purposes of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (“PCR 2015”) and the Concession Contracts Regulations 2016 (“CCR 2016”).
The Council is using the competitive dialogue process pursuant to Regulation 30 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as amended) (PCR) which will involve the following two core stages:
Stage 1 – an evaluation of the capacity, capability, and financial standing of Tenderers to meet Council requirements and shortlisting (SQ);
Stage 2 – the Invitation to Participate in Dialogue (IPCD) comprised of two stages:
i. Initial Dialogue and submission of Outline Solutions, following which there will be further shortlisting.
ii. Detailed Dialogue leading to close of Dialogue and the submission of Final Tenders, following which the winning Tenderer will be selected.
Those Tenderers shortlisted at Stage 1 will be invited to participate in the Dialogue stage of the process and will be requested to provide proposals to meet the requirements outlined in the Project Specification and the Tender Evaluation Criteria. Stage 2 will be run in successive stages with the intention of reducing the number of Tenderers after evaluation of Outline Solutions, to be taken through to Detailed Dialogue.
The Council will invite a maximum of Four (4) Tenderers to participate in Stage 2 and such Tenderers will be selected on the basis of them being the four highest scoring at the SQ stage, provided they all meet all minimum standards of qualification set out in the Selection Questionnaire.
It is anticipated that the evaluation of Outline Solutions in accordance with the Outline Solution Evaluation Criteria will result in a down selection from four (4) to two (2) Bidders. The Council expects to invite the two highest-scoring compliant Bidders to proceed to Detailed Dialogue.
