Architectural Services for Fleet Services Depot

Wolverhampton City Council is looking to hire a Lead Designer, Principal Designer, and Architect for RIBA stages 4 to 7 for the new Fleet Services Depot, which includes offices and parking facilities. The selected consultant must have experience in creating Design and Build drawings and specifications. This project involves moving the Fleet Services and other Council operations from various locations to a new site on Hickman Avenue. The Council will handle the demolition of existing facilities, while the appointed contractor will construct the new building and parking area. An outline planning application based on RIBA Stage 3 was submitted in May 2025 and is currently awaiting validation. The Design Team will need to address any reserved matters and fulfill conditions as part of the planning process. Consultants must provide a fixed lump sum fee for each RIBA stage as part of their tender submission. This fee should not depend on any estimated construction costs provided by the bidder. For more details, please refer to Appendix A of the Project Brief.
