UK-Leicester: property management services of real estate on a fee or contract basis
The Red Lion Quarter Spalding, Lincolnshire - property management contract - 3076/12. Property management services of real estate on a fee or contract basis. Commercial property management services. The Red Lion Quarter is a unique multi-use development in Spalding, Lincolnshire offering the following mix of business and leisure services: — Modern office and retail units — Meeting rooms and event space — Fine dining restaurant — College of further education the project was managed by a partnership consisting of South Holland District Council, East Midlands Development Agency, Lincolnshire Enterprise, Boston College and Lincolnshire County Council. Together they secured funding and developed a sustainable centre of mixed business use. South Holland District Council wishes to build upon the progress already achieved, and move Red Lion Quarter forward to develop fully the building's potential and help deliver against the project's longer term aspirations. To do this, the Council intends to award a contract to one or more organisations for the future management and development of the centre. Ideally these will be organisations who not only possess the necessary skills, experience and, especially, business flair, but who also share the Council's vision of what could be achieved. The Council is adopting a flexible approach to the exercise, in order not to stifle innovation or decide in advance the business model which may ultimately prove the most suitable. Organisations who are considering making a bid to be involved in the future of the Red Lion Quarter should note the following points: — The Council does not at this stage have in mind any specific structure for the new management arrangements. Options which we anticipate may come forward from bidders include: o A head-leasehold arrangement, in which a single organisation will be appointed by the Council. The contract may be on a "turn-key" basis, with the appointed organisation effectively assuming entire responsibility for the centre. Their role would include marketing the centre, letting the business space and retail units to suitable tenants (sub-leaseholders), collecting rents and looking after all tenancy matters, and "facility-managing" the building. o A consortium bid from two (or more) organisations who can each contribute complementary expertise and experience, so that between them they can offer a complete, comprehensive solution. Within such a consortium, we would expect one of the constituent organisations to act as the lead member, and assume overall responsibility for the actions of the consortium, and be a single point of contact. o Bids from organisations wishing to manage part of the building – for instance, the food court, or the office space. Such an approach may appeal to a suitably experienced firm who possess ambition in their own field, but does not wish to assume responsibility for elements with which they have less familiarity. (Such an approach would of course require the Council to receive a bid from another organisation to manage the rest of the building). o Other solutions which represent viable routes forward for the centre. — In order to accommodate the range of solutions which may come forward, the Council has adopted a procurement approach designed to allow all solutions to be formally considered, and developed by discussion and negotiation,— The Council wishes to commence the new management arrangements as soon as practicable – an award of contract is envisaged during March 2012, with the new arrangements coming into effect as quickly as possible thereafter, — The Council is prepared to consider solution which propose a duration of any reasonable length, up to 20 years, — To give interested organisations as much information and background as possible about the Red Lion Quarter and the Council's aspirations for its future, we have arranged a briefing meeting to which all such bodies are invited. The meeting will be held on Tuesday, 22nd November, starting at 11am, and will be held at the Red Lion Quarter itself. To make a reservation to attend the meeting, please in advance of the meeting, e mail Michelle Watkins on m.watkins@espo.org quoting ref 3076. CPV: 70330000, 70332200. ...

NL-Rotterdam: wind-energy generators
Market Consultation Wind Park Maasvlakte 2. The Port of Rotterdam Authority and the Dutch government are investigating the possibilities of realising a wind park on the sea defence of Maasvlakte 2, the large-scale land reclamation for the expansion of the Port of Rotterdam. The location on the sea defence of Maasvlakte 2 is rather exceptional. It is an on shore location with the potential to generate more than 100 MW of wind energy, with excellent (off shore) wind conditions. On the other hand, a number of issues require attention at this location. The space available for incorporating wind turbines is restricted by reservations for cables and pipelines and by the required safety of the sea defence). The Port Authority and the government are mapping out the preconditions that are pertinent to the realisation of this kind of wind park. In addition, the Port Authority and the government want to gain insight into what the market sees as possibilities for a wind park on the sea defence of Maasvlakte 2. For this purpose the Port Authority has set up a market consultation, and invites interested parties to participate in the consultation. The consultation can be accessed through the mentioned website and is open until 9.12.2011. More information on the characteristics of the location can be found at this site as well. This market consultation does not form part of any possible future selection process. CPV: 31121300, 65320000, 45251160. ...
