The programme will also include works to buildings that may be required for decant, together with a range of enabling works which may or may not be within the immediate curtilage of the Northern Estate.

The intention is to appoint a Programme, Project and Cost Management team that will continue for the duration of the programme.

Applicants should note that the House of Commons Northern Estate Programme is procuring design advice under separate procurements (180131-2015; 201303-2015; 180133-2015; 202874-2015). The Contracting Authority is therefore concerned that a conflict of interest may arise if the successful cost consultant under this procurement (whether an individual or a company) were also to provide design services under (180131-2015; 201303-2015; 180133-2015; 202874-2015). Should an Applicant submit a Tender under each procurement they will need to demonstrate that no such conflict will arise.
