The Council is seeking to procure a Development Partner with the necessary skills, experience and capacity to deliver an exemplar development. This opportunity to work with the Council, initially over an 18-month period as part of a two stage Pre-Development contract has been devised as part of the Council’s procurement strategy to reduce the burden of tendering as much as possible on Candidates and to encourage collaboration, innovation, risk apportionment, and partnership between the Council and the Development Partner prior to entering into a Development Agreement. As a Candidate, you will be experienced and capable of delivering complex regeneration and mixed tenure development projects of similar scale and nature. Your team will be multi-disciplinary and consist of the Development Partner, full design team services, construction contractors and specialist expertise in areas such as sustainability and modern methods of construction. You will identify opportunities for working with the local community and Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs), creating new jobs and stimulating the local economy. The gross development value is projected at GBO90million - GBP120million.
