Prior Information Notice (PIN) for Margate Skatepark Design and Build
Published
Description
Thanet District Council is seeking to engage with the market to help inform its procurement exercise for one of the Margate Town Deal projects; a new Skatepark facility. The Council will be looking to tender the design and build of the skatepark and building(s) and is seeking responses from the market to a number of questions. Through this Questionnaire, we are seeking to engage with: Contractors who have experience of designing and building skateparks in challenging marine / coastal environments Contractors who have experience of delivering significant new skatepark builds with ancillary buildings and facilities (toilets / lighting / creating safe environments / equality for all) Consultants who have a proven track record of advising Clients who are developing skatepark facilities The Council’s expectation is that this opportunity may suit specialist contractors with the experience, track record, capability and capacity to deliver a skatepark new build of this scale and complexity. We are seeking contractors with experience in undertaking consultations and engagement activity to ensure the proposed design meets with local aspirations, has a degree of challenge to suit all levels, will achieve planning approval and can be delivered within the project budget and timescales (operational by summer 2026). The Council has set out more details and information about this design and build skatepark opportunity within an accompanying Prospectus. These details include the site boundary, details of statutory services, surveys and investigations undertaken. The Council would be grateful if participants could complete a short questionnaire to help inform our understanding of the market and indicate that this opportunity would be of interest to you/your organisation. This is not a call for competition. The issuing of this document and the carrying out of this early market engagement does not commit the Council to commence any related procurement process. For this Prior Information Notice (PIN), the deadline for Soft Market Testing responses is 14.00 hours, 21 March 2024.
