A feasibility study conducted in 2019 identified options to significantly improve and transform the physical assets within GLaM. For us to be able to access funding opportunities, when they become available, we are commissioning a further piece of work to progress the Transformational Option 2 identified in the study, whereby at the end of RIBA Stage 3 (Developed Design) we have sufficient detail to enable a full planning application to be submitted. Relevant works to be costed include architectural, associated services and surveys as detailed in the pricing schedule. In addition to enable us the option to progress to RIBA stage 4 Technical Design\*, we are also seeking costings for relevant works related to this stage. - These works are in addition to contract value stated above and need to be costed separately as they will only be progressed once additional funding has been identified Additional information: This project is time critical and therefore if you genuinely cannot meet the Councils procurement key timescales and deadlines then please do not submit a bid.
