Submission – McKinnon Architects – 20.08.2024

I am writing with regard to the new Health Care Facilities Programme. We are o the Proactis online Portal but find that we are not notified of any Architectural work tendered by the States of Jersey. I have tried to change our settings on the Portal to try to get the correct tenders sent to me, but I find the Portal very hard to use. When I search the Proactis Portal for the last States of Jersey tender, it comes with One Gov New Office Technical Adviser which was added in 27/01/2020.

I also find that the States don't want to employ designers and would rather employ contractors who will bring their own design team.

As local contractors are not used to this set up, they don't often bid, so it is only UK contractors with UK design teams.
