Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Decision:

For the Head of Programme Management to award the Contract for the ‘551B High Road’ EA/QS commission to ‘Bristow Johnson’ for consultancy services up to RIBA Stage 7. The sum of the Contract is £56,721.00 (Fifty-six thousand, seven hundred and twenty-one pounds).


Reasons for the decision:

To appoint a high quality, experienced consultant to support delivery of the project to extend the underutilised Council building into a commercial and community asset that will contribute positively to the regeneration of Tottenham.

The decision is being taken to allow progression of the 551B High Road project to meet GLA funding timescales for the ‘Enterprising Tottenham High Road’ programme.

Alternative options considered:

An alternative option would be not to proceed with the commission, but this not recommended as this would not support the agreed objectives of maximising the building’s use and contributing to the physical, social and economic regeneration of the area.
