<p>The Government of Jersey (the "<strong>Authority</strong>") is presently progressing with the refurbishment, maintenance and essential repair projects on both the Jersey Opera House and Jersey Arts Centre buildings (the "<strong>Projects</strong>"). When the works associated with the Projects (the "<strong>Works</strong>") are completed, it is envisaged that they will ensure the continued safe operation and use of these much-loved arts, culture and education facilities in the future.</p>
<p>The Works involved may comprise (but not be limited to) the alterations, adaptations, refurbishment, and replacement of some or all the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>building services installations (electrical, mechanical and plumbing installations);</li>
<li>alarms and security-related installations;</li>
<li>windows / external doors;</li>
<li>repairs to external / internal walls;</li>
<li>repairs, replacement or reinstatement of internal and external finishes;</li>
<li>replacement of arts and other performance-related installations; and</li>
<li>completing essential improvements to enable better access and movement of those with impairments.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Works are presently planned to commence early in 2022 and aim to be completed by Summer 2022. The Works are being funded by the Government's Fiscal Stimulus Fund (the "<strong>Fund</strong>"). Those organisations interested in participating in this procurement should research and fully understand the requirements that the Fund has for the projects that it shall fund, including the Fund's focus on stimulating the local economy and delivering social value outcomes focussed within the island. Potential suppliers will be challenged to demonstrate the local economic benefits as a part of the procurement.&nbsp;</p>
<p>As a part of the Projects, the Authority is presently seeking to procure and appoint an integrated design team (the "<strong>IDT</strong>") that will provide the Authority with all architectural, structural / civil engineering, building services engineering and heritage advisory services (the "<strong>IDT Services</strong>") associated with the Works.</p>
<p>The IDT will be led by an organisation that will enter into an agreement with the Authority based on the Authority's standard terms and conditions for professional services, and deliver their IDT Services required by way of task order. In turn, the lead organisation shall sub-consult such other services as it requires to deliver the IDT Services. The agreement with the Contracting Authority for the IDT Services will contain obligations for design liabilities, including tolerances and performance standards, insurances and collateral warranties.</p>
