The Council are seeking framework partners to provide a range of services to take schemes through the various feasibility and development stages leading up to the point of securing funding, appointment of a developer and/or detailed design and implementation. It is noted that the Council has limited land ownership and therefore the work will require collaboration with private landowners and key stakeholders. The level and spectrum of pre-development work required for projects will vary and some may only require limited input. The framework will contain a maximum of three (3) multi-disciplinary teams to provide services across a range of regeneration, planning, property, and technical areas. Each multi-disciplinary team / framework partner will be required to provide the following skills and expertise: Project and programme management Property and commercial, including valuations, appraisals, acquisitions/ CPO, market intelligence, and economic guidance Delivery models and approaches Development options, feasibility, and pre-development Development funding and financing Cost consultants Business case development including benefit cost ratios and cash flows Concept plans, capacity layouts and master planning Planning and planning policy guidance Inward investment, marketing, and branding Architectural Consulting engineer(s) e.g. remediation, flood risk, transport & highways, utilities, civils, drainage Environmental consultants e.g. noise, air quality, ecology, heritage conservation, arboriculture. The expected contract value for known work is £500k per annum, however with additional projects, potential opportunities to secure external funding and possible use across other areas of the Council this could be significantly exceeded. The Council is looking to appoint a maximum of three (3) multidisciplinary teams /framework partners for this Contract. It is expected that each framework partner will be managed by an identified Lead Consultant. However, the use of specialist sub-consultants may be required to assist with the delivery of the commission to provide the full spectrum of skills and services (unless the services can be provided in-house by the Lead Consultant). The Lead Consultant should therefore have the ability to bring in and contract with sub-consultants required for the commission. The Council will in the main at its discretion award a direct call-off for each particular project to the supplier that it considers the most suitable for that specific assignment, however where the Council considers it appropriate it will run a mini-competition between suppliers on the Framework in order to achieve the best outcome.

Walsall Council is seeking a high-quality provider to assess the feasibility of redeveloping Bloxwich Theatre into a multi-function creative space. Whilst still enabling the building to be used as a theatre, the Council seeks to refurbish and repurpose the underused venue into a valuable utilized space for audiences, creative businesses, communities, and schools alike. Bloxwich is a deprived area with low rates of skills and workforce mobility, and over 80% of neighbourhoods in the top 20% most deprived. Work is already happening in the area as part of Bloxwich Town Plan backed by £21M Town's Funding to revive the town centre, including the development of the Bloxwich Launchpad, a digital access and incubation centre, which is adjacent to the Theatre. Re-development of the theatre is as much a place shaping project supporting the future of the town centre as it is a venue upgrade. Proximity to the Bloxwich Launchpad anchors the project in a wider offer, supports the development of daytime/night-time economies, develops skills, and creates jobs. It will turn this under-utilised corner of Bloxwich into a thriving, creative enterprise quarter supporting artists, community groups & SMEs.
