The contractor will be responsible for providing detailed input on the buildability of the design, collaborating with the design team to ensure constructability, and contributing to cost estimation, planning, and risk identification during this phase. Key Responsibilities for RIBA Stage 4: • Provide buildability input to ensure the design can be practically constructed and meets the required performance specifications. • Assist with detailed cost estimation, including providing open book pricing. • Contribute to risk management by identifying potential risks and proposing mitigation strategies. • Review and validate the design to confirm that it aligns with project requirements and is feasible for construction. Phase 2 - Construction Works (RIBA Stage 5 and 6) The ITT also includes the potential for the appointed Contractor to undertake the construction works, which cover RIBA Stage 5 (Construction) and RIBA Stage 6 (Handover and Close Out). However, the appointment for these stages is not guaranteed at this point. Upon the completion of RIBA Stage 4, a formal review will be conducted to assess the Contractor's performance and the project's requirements. The Council reserves the right to proceed with the contractor for the construction works, subject to satisfactory performance during RIBA Stage 4, confirmation of costs, and overall project alignment. A break clause will be in place, allowing the Council to either proceed with the appointed Contractor or re-tender for the construction works. The Council retains Intellectual Property over full design work specific to the sites of this project for use with another contractor if required. Key Points for RIBA Stage 5 and 6: • The ITT outlines the requirements for both pre-construction services and potential construction works, but the contractor is only guaranteed the work for RIBA Stage 4. • Following the completion of RIBA Stage 4, the Council will review whether to appoint the contractor for RIBA Stage 5 and 6 based on performance, costs, and other considerations. Deliver the goods and or provide services/deliver the works at Williamson Park, Quernmore Road, Lancaster LA1 1UX; The Storey, 2 Meeting House Lane, Town Centre, Lancaster, LA1 1TH; City Lab 406 Dalton Square, Lancaster, LA1 1PP. The main contract is subject to obtaining all necessary planning consents. The responsibility for securing these consents will primarily rest with the Council. However, the appointed contractor will be expected to provide technical support and relevant information as required during the planning process. The contractor must be aware that no construction works, particularly any equipment ordering or significant on-site activities, can commence until all planning permissions are secured.
