In plain English

The Forestry Commission wants an architecture and building design firm to help extend and alter the Dalby Visitor Centre. The consultant would design the scheme up to RIBA stage 3 (the early concept design stage, RIBA being the Royal Institute of British Architects), then help prepare the design and build tender and oversee the project through to completion (RIBA stages 4 to 7, covering detailed design, tender, construction and handover).

What the buyer wants

• Produce architectural concept and developed designs for the visitor centre extension up to RIBA stage 3 • Help prepare the design and build tender package and review the contractor's technical drawings • Manage the project on the client's behalf through RIBA stages 4 to 7, from detailed design through to handover

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

A firm without registered architects in-house, without professional indemnity insurance at the required level, or without evidence of delivering public building projects through the full RIBA stages would most likely be excluded.
