INTRODUCTION 1.1 OBJECTIVE The objective of this first phase is to pre-qualify up to a maximum of six (6) construction organizations capable of completing a large-scale, high-quality construction project. All Respondents must be capable of providing the full range of construction services, in English. This Section outlines the information Respondents are required to submit. To qualify, Respondents must meet the Mandatory Requirements and the minimum rating set out in the Pre-qualification questionnaire at 3.0. Responses not meeting the Mandatory Requirements or minimum rating will not be given further consideration. Mandatory and rated questions are identified as such in the questionnaire. The six (6) Respondents that will have achieved the highest rating will advance to the Phase 2 –Request for Proposals. 1.2 DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT The London Chancery project comprises major refurbishment works to Canada House and the adjoining 2-4 Cockspur Street building. Canada House is a grade 2* listed building providing approximately 50,000 sq ft of accommodation over six floors (including two mezzanine levels) for the Canadian London Chancery. 2-4 Cockspur Street is a 1920s office block providing approximately 140,000 sq ft of accommodation over 11 floors. The two properties are situated on an ‘island site’ in central London that offers very limited access and parking for contractors. The properties currently operate as separate buildings. The Scope of Work for both buildings includes extensive interior redevelopment and exterior alteration (to comprise external cleaning and minor maintenance works only). A principal element of the works is to provide three new internal connections between the two buildings to facilitate an extension of the Chancery into specific parts of 2-4 Cockspur Street. In addition to the internal links, the structural works will include the installation of a new staircase, changing historical roof lights, modifications to passenger lifts (including the installation of a new lift car), the installation of a new goods lift, the installation of a new balcony and windows, and the removal of a section of floor to create a double height space. The works may also necessitate enhancements or repairs to the existing structural frame, notably in the case of Canada House. For Canada House, the architectural Scope of Work will comprise modest modifications to the interior architectural details, materials and finishes in keeping with the building’s heritage features. Interior doors, frames and glazing units will be replaced where required. Toilet facilities are to be reconfigured to accommodate new layouts. A new green roof (sedum) is proposed for the second floor roof. All works to Canada House will be closely monitored by English Heritage and the local planning authority. For 2-4 Cockspur Street the architectural Scope of Work is described as being that of a standard office fit-up specification. The fit-up works are only to the basement, lower ground, ground and floors 1-3, totalling approximately 90,000 sq ft. However, elements of the shell and core are to be replaced and upgraded to the requirement of the whole building. These works include the replacement of hot and chilled water pipework, replacement of Low Voltage (LV) vertical, main and sub distribution boards, the reinstatement of a ventilation riser and replacement of air handling units. IT and lighting infrastructure will be upgraded or replaced in certain areas. The new lift required for Canada House will be pre-ordered by DFATD in order to minimise the impact of long lead- in times on the Project Schedule. The order will then be transferred to the Contractor once appointed. IT installations and certain security works will be carried out by DFATD’s own installation team. DFATD will also be responsible for installing any new artwork or sculptures. Solicitation Number : ARD-LDN-CONST-13094/A Page 2 of 24 T407E-0808 - DP – Construction – Request for Pre-Qualification Responses Section “I” Submission Requirements and Evaluations A corporate tenant will remain in occupation on three of the upper floors (and IT facilities at basement level) of 2-4 Cockspur Street for the duration of the project, so 24-hour access and security will need to be maintained. Canada House will be unoccupied. 1.3 PHASE 1 – PRE-QUALIFICATION Phase 1 consists of the pre-qualification of contractors. It is based on a series of mandatory and point-rated criteria set out over 9 categories. The six respondents with the highest score and that met the minimum score will be invited to participate to Phase 2 – Request for Proposals. This RFPR concerns Phase 1 only. 1.4 PHASE 2 – REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS: The future Phase 2 consists of the ‘Request for Proposals’ (RFP) and will comprise two parts: (a) a technical component, and (b) the submission of a fixed price, both of which will be provided with the RFP. Any information submitted by the Respondents to Phase 1, RFPR, and the resulting scores will neither be carried forward to the Phase 2 Request For Proposals nor considered in the evaluation of Phase 2 Proposals. 1.5 CONTRACT SECURITY AND INSURANCE REQUIREMENT – APPLICABLE FOR PHASE 2 RFP ONLY. The successful Respondent (then a “Proponent”)( under Phase 2 RFP will be required to provide Contract Security in the form of a Performance Bond or another form as to be described in the RFP, to the value of 10% of the contract value, within fourteen (14) days after receipt of a notice in writing that the Proposal was accepted by Her Majesty. 1.6 INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS – APPLICABLE FOR PHASE 2 RFP ONLY. As part of Phase 2 RFP, a request might be made for copies of Respondent’s insurance certificates and/or for the insurance requirements listed under Section 1.2.22 – 1.2.24). 1.7 JOINT VENTURES Joint Ventures may respond to this Phase 1 RFPR provided they include full details under Sections 1.2.21 below. SR2. TECHNICAL RESPONSE 2.1 FORMAT AND SUBSTANCE Technical Responses must not exceed fifty (50) single-sided 8.5” x 11’’ or A4 pages of paper, minimum type face 10 pts. Material exceeding the fifty (50) page maximum will NOT be considered. Title page does not count against the 50-page limitation.

It was the largest Empire in history. If the Empire’s beating heart was London, then The Strand was one of its major arteries. This mile- long street beside the River Thames was home to some of the Empire’s administrative, legal and commercial functions. The days of Empire are long gone but its legacy remains in the landscape. A walk down this modern London street is a fascinating journey through Britain’s imperial history. This walk was created in 2012 by Mike Jackson and Gary Gray, both Fellows of the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG). It was originally part of a series that explored how our towns and cities have been shaped for many centuries by some of the 206 participating nations in the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

For up to date information about the listing status of buildings in the Trafalgar Square Conservation Area please contact the Council’s South area planning team on 020 7641 2681. This Report is based on a draft prepared by Conservation, Architecture & Planning. Development Planning Services, Department of Planning and City Development City Hall, 64 Victoria Street, London SW1E 6QP www.westminster.gov.uk Document ID No: 1130 PREFACE Since the designation of the first conservation areas in 1967 the City Council has undertaken a comprehensive programme of conservation area designation, extensions and policy development. There area now 53 conservation areas in Westminster, covering 76% of the City. These conservation areas are the subject of detailed policies in the Unitary Development Plan and in Supplementary Planning Guidance. In addition to the basic activity of designation and the formulation of general policy, the City Council is required to undertake conservation area appraisals and to devise local policies in order to protect the unique character of each area. Although this process was first undertaken with the various designation reports, more recent national guidance (as found in Planning Policy Guidance Note 15 and the English Heritage Conservation Area Practice and Conservation Area Appraisal documents) requires detailed appraisals of each conservation area in the form of formally approved and published documents.

From the expansionist fever of the late nineteenth century to the redistribution of German territories immediately following the First World War, Canadians of varying backgrounds campaigned vigorously for Canada-West Indies union. Their efforts generated a transatlantic discourse that raised larger questions about Canada’s national trajectory, imperial organization, and the state of Britain’s Empire in the twentieth century. This dissertation explores the key ideas, tensions, and contradictions that shaped the union discourse over time. Race, nation and empire were central to this discourse.

Brexit continues to paralyse UK politics, Canada is gearing up for a Federal Election in the Autumn, global trade agreements (and conflict) ebb and flow, the Ukraine has elected a comedian as President. Amidst these ‘interesting times’ for globalism and populism, we have set a course for the Canada-UK Chamber of Commerce in 2019 where we remain focused on doing the things that we do well, while continuing to adapt to the unusual environment we are inhabiting. The Chamber marked its 97th anniversary in 2018 with the busiest networking programme in its history attracting over 3,500 registrations, and in 2019 our intention has been to deliver another diverse and engaging schedule of events, attractive to a broad membership base. And we’re delighted to see that so far this year, our approach to provide members and potential members at all levels with an exciting programme of networking and new business development opportunities, has been really productive.

    FOURTH PLINTH COMMISSION ARTIST INFORMATION PACK The Fourth Plinth, empty in Trafalgar Square 2 Contents 1. Background 2. Context 3. Brief 4. Commissioning Process and Submission Requirements 5. Timeline and Key Dates 6. Budget 7. Legal Implications 8. Acceptance of Invitation 9. Appendix: Technical Details 10. Appendix: Trafalgar Square 3 Introduction The Mayor of London’s Fourth Plinth Commission is now one of the most highly regarded contemporary public art programmes in the world. The programme has achieved significant national and international attention for its commitment to commissioning the very best contemporary art in one of the world’s most visited tourist destinations – Trafalgar Square, London. Approximately 4,000 people an hour go past the square and thousands more spend time in it every day. Since 1999 a series of temporary artworks have been commissioned specifically for this prestigious location in the heart of London. The artworks have always been provocative and have presented challenging propositions for the role of contemporary art in the centre of our cities. Each artwork generates high levels of discussion, amongst art professionals and members of the public alike. Discussions are about the climate in which the works are being commissioned, the square in which they are located and the city they come to represent over the period of their exhibition. 4 Mark Wallinger Ecce Homo 1999 5 Background of the programme The Fourth Plinth, located in the north-west corner of Trafalgar Square, was designed by Sir Charles Barry and built in 1841 to display an equestrian statue. Due to insufficient funds the plinth was left empty and remained so until 1998 when The Royal Society for the Encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce (RSA) commissioned a series of three works to be temporarily displayed there.
