Description

Guinness through its subsidiaries, Guinness Development Ltd and Guinness Homes Ltd (amongst other subsidiaries), commenced a build programme aiming to deliver 5,500 new homes by 2024. We are committed to building safe, high quality, well designed homes where people want to live. Using our financial strength, experience and scale, we are building new homes and communities across the country at a range of price points and tenures – from private sale to social rent.
Progress is being made and to support the delivery of the programme Guinness and its subsidiaries wish to establish a Framework for Architect services. This will support the delivery of a significant programme of new build schemes over the term of the framework. Guinness estimates this programme could mean up to 36 individual schemes commencing over the next four year period. The future programme is expected to focus on larger 25 to 500 unit schemes though it may include some smaller schemes as required. Guinness gives no guarantee on the volume of work allocated through the framework.
The framework is split into three regional lots and it is anticipated that up to three suppliers will be appointed to each lot. Approximately 50% of spend for new schemes is most likely to be in the London and South East, with 30% in the North and 20% in the South West Regions.

William Blake Windows and Redecorations – Design Team

City of London Corporation wish to procure a multi-disciplinary design team to undertake principal designer duties, deliver the pre-planning and full planning applications, produce specifications and cost plans ready to tender for the works and undertake contract administration duties for the Window Replacement and Associated Works project at William Blake Estate. The successful consultant is to survey the existing windows and external doors (where located within window sets) to determine how the existing windows are to be removed and replaced with new, efficient contemporary windows which will achieve Listed Building Consent. In conjunction with the window replacements particular consideration is essential to ensure that adequate ventilation is incorporated within the design proposals. Each block has its own set of windows in various fenestrations which consist mainly of timber framed single glazed sliding sash windows. The consultant will be expected to review previously approved planning applications and undertake any additional surveys for each block and window type before submitting new pre-planning applications (including summary of options) and then subsequently using the advice to submit full planning application. During the planning process, the consultant is expected to review previous planning submissions and responses and build the new specifications ready to tender either via a compliant open tender process or via a nominated framework. Subject to full planning permissions, the consultant will submit a specification to accompany City of London tender documents. The requirements for the new windows are to protect the building from external conditions, provide privacy and security, improve the acoustic performance, provide thermal insulation, aid in the external fabric’s resistance to spread of fire, provide access to daylight, provide controllable ventilation, resist wind loadings, and provide protection from falling and impact. The Corporation also intends to incorporate various associated works into this window replacement package, in order to maximise efficiencies and ensure that its landlord responsibilities are fully met. Although the window replacement element will undoubtedly be a key component of the works, a holistic approach is considered most appropriate at this stage, in respect of the blocks’ external envelope.
