Redevelopment of Standingford House Site at Cave Street to Provide New Office Accommodation - AWARD

Description

This Invitation to Tender and (and the associated draft Contract and documents) (the ITT) relates to the Council's project concerning the redevelopment of Standingford House and site at Cave Street, Oxford, OX4 1BA to provide new flexible and accessible office accommodation. The delivery of workspace in and around the city-centre is one of the main areas of intervention identified in the City Council's Corporate Strategy and Business Plan, and Oxford City Council's Economic Strategy (2022-32). The strategy has demonstrated a need to provide workspace that local people and businesses can access. It recognises the need to support higher quality workspace across the city and highlights the role that new spaces can play in supporting the evolution of local neighbourhoods and town centres, through office and co-working space. The county-wide Local Industrial Strategy positions Oxfordshire as one of the top-three global innovation ecosystems, providing an ambitious, long-term vision for economic growth between now and 2040, backed by business. Key to that is support for creative, social enterprise and technology sectors and provides an environment for people and businesses to thrive. The redevelopment is part funded by OxLEP Local Growth Funding to support the inclusive economy agenda, by allowing the scheme to come forward in a way that provides flexible and accessible space that supports new entrepreneurs and growing businesses.
