The selection process will be organised over the following phases:
Selection Questionnaires (SQ) are invited from design led teams. Complete design teams are required including structural, mechanical, electrical, and so on.
The Partners will be appointing their own external project manager and cost consultants to support the project team.
Using the “Criteria for Selection”, a shortlist of up to five teams will be selected and invited to the design phase of the competition.
During the competition period mid-competition workshops will be held by Partners at the lead design consultancy's offices.
The Client hopes that all shortlisted participants will take part in subsequent stages of the process. However, the Client reserves the right to reduce the number of solutions to be discussed via the application of the appropriate Award Criteria.
Remaining Participants will be asked to submit Final Tenders and design concepts based on the solutions presented and specified during the negotiation Phase.
Final assessment will involve a presentation and interview with each shortlisted team to the Evaluation Panel comprising advisers and senior representatives from the Partners.
