Design and renovation of the heritage-listed Our Lady of Częstochowa Chapel in Lipowa

Summary

The tender covers the comprehensive renovation of the heritage-listed chapel dedicated to Our Lady of Częstochowa in Lipowa under a design-and-build arrangement. The contractor must first prepare multidisciplinary design, bill-of-quantities and cost-estimate documentation and obtain the required approvals and building permit or submit the required construction notification. The contractor must then carry out the construction, site development and conservation works, provide surveying services, multidisciplinary author’s supervision, as-built documentation and handover documents; conservation works may be performed only by a diploma-qualified art conservator. The tender deadline is 24 September 2026 at 10:00, and the tender must be submitted electronically in Polish. The award criteria are price at 60%, extension of the liability period at 20%, the architectural designer’s experience at 10% and the diploma-qualified conservator’s experience at 10%. The minimum liability period is 60 months, while the tender form allows a period of 60–84 months. The procurement documents state a performance period of 13 months, but the tender form and draft contract state 15 months; this discrepancy should be clarified with the contracting authority before submission. The successful bidder must provide 5% performance security, liability insurance of at least PLN 50,000 and evidence of employment contracts for construction workers.
