Other Information

** PREVIEW NOTICE, please check Find a Tender for full details. ** The procurement documentation will be available from 5pm on Monday 31st January 2022 from the Delta e-sourcing portal. The brochure link is accessible here: https://stationgateway-hh.co.uk/Station-Gateway-Brochure.pdf Hemel Hempstead Station Gateway presents a significant regeneration opportunity at a key transport node, with easy access to London. The vision for the opportunity area is to maximise the residential potential in this sustainable location, providing a new station square and multi-storey car park. Future residents will benefit from easy travel into London in less than 30 mins, along with direct access to the town of Hemel Hempstead and the surrounding, high quality countryside. The development potential of the site has been studied in depth by the architects Farrells, who have worked through a design process including various technical, transport, planning and community consultations. The indicative masterplan delivers a multi-storey car park, station access road and additional infrastructure in order to release developable land and enable construction of the residential scheme. A positive pre-application response from Dacorum Borough Council for the principle of comprehensive redevelopment of the site to provide 454 residential units, approx. 40,000 sq ft (NIA) of commercial floor space, a Multi-Storey Car Park and extensive public realm improvements has been received. A formal procurement process is being followed under the Utilities Contracts Regulations 2016 under the negotiated procedure to select a developer. This will be a two-stage process. Stage 1 is the pre-qualification stage where a shortlist of six applicants will be selected to progress to Stage 2 of the process. Stage 2 is the Invitation to Negotiate and is split into two phases. Phase 1 of Stage 2 will see the bidders invited to workshops and ultimately submit their outline proposals. The three highest scoring bidders will be shortlisted to progress to Phase 2 of Stage 2. This will include further workshops and negotiations and will conclude with the bidders submitting their final tenders and following an evaluation process, a preferred bidder will be selected. The Estimated total value has been set at £170m. This is an indicative figure, based on our assumption of the Gross Development Value of the Farrells masterplan plus the cost of building the MSCP, access road and enabling works. The Duration of the contract has been estimated at 120 months. This is an estimate based on our assessment of time required to enter into formal contract, obtain planning permission and undertake the development. This should be read as a timescale that is unlikely to be exceeded but may well be bettered.
