Description

This contract is for an auger survey of a scheduled Henrician blockhouse/artillery fort and associated foreshore (intertidal) features, that lie on the Essex coast at East Mersea. The site is threatened with imminent loss due to coastal erosion. The principal aim of the survey is to provide data that will enable informed decisions to be made about where and what to target for excavation as part of a broader programme of investigation being drawn up for the site, thereby creating a permanent enhanced understanding and record of it in advance of inevitable loss. However, the East Mersea foreshore is famous for preserving Pleistocene deposits, especially relating to the Ipswichian Interglacial, e.g. the Hippo Site (Boreham & Wynton 2020), and it is conceivable the project may also produce evidence of other periods. If so, this should also be recorded.
      
      Historic England has a budget of £10,000 - £15,000 ex VAT for this project.

The Provision of Research into Fire Safety Access and Facilities in Buildings

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) is a Crown non-departmental public body with specific statutory functions in relation to health and safety. It is appointed by the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions and employs around 3,500 staff including policy advisers, inspectors, technologists and scientific and medical advisers. HSE's job is to prevent people being killed, injured or made ill by work. The Technical Policy Team is part of the Building Safety Regulator (BSR) which sits within the Health and Safety Executive. It is responsible for developing and maintaining the technical guidance that supports the Building Regulations. Their work also involves the identification of emerging risks and provision of expert advice to the Government. The technical guidance sets the standard for new buildings and work to existing buildings, and the BSR utilises this guidance, in the form of the Approved Documents, to improve the safety, accessibility, liveability, function and sustainability of the built environment. As part of the technical review of Approved Document B (ADB) the relevant stakeholder workshops, a Call for Evidence, and advice from the Building Advisory Committee (BAC) highlighted the need for research into the area of "Access and facilities for the fire service". The research is aimed to review whether the relevant provisions in ADB are fit for purpose and effective in meeting the minimum requirements under Schedule 1, Part B5 of the Building Regulations 2010. The main output from the research will be an objective and evidence-based presentation of the results in the form of technical reports. The work is expected to be organised into three separate objectives. Additional information: All tender documents are available via the HSE In-Tend supplier e-procurement portal. All responses and requests for clarification must be submitted via the portal. Registration is free of charge and can be completed via the following link: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/hse
