## Summary

The University of Birmingham is seeking to enhance practical teaching in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) through their initiative titled "Collaborative Teaching Laboratory." This project, which includes the construction of an Engineering Lab and more extensive facilities such as Wet Labs and Dry Labs, falls under the construction industry category. The procurement process has reached the award stage, with the contract awarded to Morgan Sindall Construction & Infrastructure Ltd for a total value of £24,540,997. Key dates include the contract start on 16 December 2016 and completion expected by 26 January 2017.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in substantial construction projects. Contractors with experience in building educational or laboratory facilities would be well-suited to compete for similar future projects. Companies specialising in STEM-oriented construction work can leverage this opportunity to expand their portfolios and establish ongoing partnerships with educational institutions like the University of Birmingham.

## Notice

The Collaborative Teaching Laboratory (CTL) represents a significant investment by the University of Birmingham (UoB) in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) subjects with a vision to transform practical teaching in this area. The CTL will be delivered in two phases. The first phase is creation of an Engineering Lab in the existing Mechanical and Civil Engineering building on Campus and is currently nearing completion. The second, much larger phase of CTL will deliver a state of the art facility for practical STEM teaching via the creation of a Wet Lab, Dry Lab, E-Lab and Discovery Lab surrounded by informal learning spaces in a new building.
