Description
The Ebury Regeneration scheme is one of the Council’s largest estate development schemes. Once completed, it will deliver 781 homes of various sizes, across nine tower blocks. Ebury Phase 1 will deliver two high-rise blocks (Buildings 7 and 8), a total of circa 224 new homes. Ebury Phase 2 will deliver approximately 337 new homes across five tower blocks (buildings 1,2,3,5 and 6 . Ebury Phase 3 is currently estimated to deliver a total of 220 homes across two tower blocks (Buildings 4 and 9).
This report seeks approval for a variation to the original contract value with Gardiner and Theobald LLP (G&T) for the provision of Project Management and Employer’s Agent (PM/EA) for Ebury Bridge Regeneration in respect of Phase 2 only. The cost of Phase 3 remains unchanged from the original contract with services to be provided through to Practical Completion on the schemes. The original contract was approved and awarded on 22nd November 2021 – refer to Appendix A for Cabinet Member Report. Further Cabinet Member approval is required as the value of the contract variation has exceeded 10% of the original contract value due to extended programme and increased scope of services.
