Worcester City Council (the "Authority") is bringing to the market an excellent opportunity for the redevelopment of the site of the former Scala Theatre and Corn Exchange in the heart of Worcester City Centre to form a Performing Arts Centre (the "Project"). The redevelopment of the Scala and Corn Exchange forms the primary aspect of the Worcester Future High Street Fund (FHSF) redevelopment programme being led by the Authority. Worcester's FHSF programme will transform the northern part of the City Centre into a diverse leisure, cultural, entertainment and residential quarter that will attract younger people and families. Since the 19th century, the Northern Gateway of Worcester City Centre has served as a commercial hub within the City. However, the area has recently been in decline as the number of vacant retail units has increased and footfall has decreased. The objective of the FHSF programme is to create a vibrant leisure and entertainment quarter adjacent to the high-quality primary retail core providing residents and visitors with an additional attraction and extending the City Centre's overall vibrancy. The Authority is seeking to appoint a contractor via a two stage tender process to work with them to deliver the construction (and part design) of and deliver the architectural vision for the Project which has already been developed to RIBA Stage 3. The Authority is seeking a contractor who will work them collaboratively in order to manage risk, cost and quality and who is sensitive to the nature of the Project, its location and the community interest in it. In addition to the main building work for the Project, the Authority intends for the appointed contractor to also undertake any demolition and enabling works that are required as part of the development of the site in preparation for the main building works. Further details of the contract documents that the successful tenderer will be required to enter into (the "Contracts") are set out in the Procurement Documents
