Issue details

Project management, quantity surveyor (cost consultancy) and employer’s representative services for Hereford Enterprise Zone

We are embarking on a significant investment in infrastructure to make the North Magazine ready for business investors to buy and build their new workplace.
This will involve a major package of projects being delivered in the next few months in order to meet the very tight deadlines set under the terms of The Marches LEP grant funding agreement.
As such we need expert employer representative, project management and cost consultancy (QS) support to help shape and drive the procurement, contracting and delivery of the project package.
Mace will provide specialist professional input to ensure the projects are tendered in the best shape and provide the requisite input through contracting, to manage the day to day relationship with the contractors and help deal with issues particularly around cost and progress in real time.
Four quotations have been secured for carrying out the work via the pro contract system. The Council’s contract procedure rules have been followed with support from the Commercial team. Mace Limited scored highest in the evaluation exercise.
Mace Limited are supplying the same project team who have helped keep the Shell Store project on track in terms of budget and timetable so will bring that knowledge of the Zone and clients and will hit the ground running.
