Notice Title

Estates; Main Contractor for BMS Building Internal Fit Out

Notice Description

In February 2019 the Bio Molecular Sciences (BMS) Building suffered a fire which spread into a number of laboratory areas. The efforts to extinguish the fire resulted in significant water damage to all areas and systems within the building. The reinstatement project will be delivered in 2 phases. Phase 1 comprises the Curtain Walling and Roof repairs necessary to provide a dry "shell" ready for fitting out. Phase 2 comprises the "fit out" works. Phase 1 is under way and does not form part of this contract.
