• Produce feasibility studies to RIBA Stage 1 or equivalent, technical standards and engineering specifications;
• Undertake site inspections and witnessing across the Parliamentary Estate as set out within the procurement documents;
• Review lift traffic analysis from previous studies and project consultants and where necessary undertake new traffic analysis and propose optimum lift design strategy for the population and use patterns of the Parliamentary Estate; and
• Carry out whole of life costing with the view of ensuring that value for money is achieved by taking a holistic approach to design the lifts in relation to each other, traffic flow, building occupants, logistics, fire evacuation strategy, access control and security strategy, environment and sustainability, heritage and conservation and user priorities.
