Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council is planning to go out to the market for a DBOM contract to replace the existing Aquadrome, for a health and leisure facility.

The facility is owned by the Council and managed by an external management company on behalf of the Basingstoke and Deane Leisure Community Trust (an independent charity) and the Council. The Council is now preparing for the DBOM contract, undertaking surveys to de-risk the site, and prepare the Contract Documentation.

The purpose of this PIN is to seek views on; 1. Whether your organisation would be likely to tender for this opportunity, given the type of contract (DBOM) and timescales. 2. Your views on whether the surveys completed (or being completed), will provide you with sufficient site information to submit a DBOM tender, and what likely design and build risks would remain with the Council.

What further site surveys you would recommend the Council undertake to de-risk the site and your design and build submission? 4.
