## Summary

The University of Birmingham is seeking a Project Manager for the New School of Engineering initiative, classified under Construction project management services. This procurement process is currently at the award stage, following a selective procurement method via a framework agreement. The tender period ended on 15th May 2017, with the contract expected to start from 1st June 2017 and last until 30th September 2021. The project has an estimated value of £682,711.20 and is located in Birmingham, England, specifically at the postal code B15 2TT.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in construction project management, particularly those with experience in educational infrastructure projects. Companies that excel in delivering large-scale developments and refurbishments would be well-suited to participate, as the project involves transforming the School's estate to enhance its capabilities and support its ambitions for growth. The contract awarded to Mace Ltd suggests potential for collaboration or competition among firms in this sector, highlighting the demand for innovative approaches in engineering education facilities.

## Notice

As a result of the formation of the School of Engineering on the 1st January 2016, significant changes have taken place in the disciplines of Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Electronic, Electrical and Systems Engineering (EESE). This, combined with a rapidly changing engineering landscape, corresponding investments by competitor institutions, the School's ambition, forms a compelling basis for a significant investment in the School's estate and infrastructure. The investment required would transform the School's estate, providing: i. A striking new development, which will be a signature build for both the School and the University, with a design synonymous with Engineering at Birmingham. ii. Refurbished and upgraded areas of the current Mechanical / Civil building (Y3), to assist in accommodating areas of EESE research activity and student-facing advanced project spaces akin to the CTL Phase 1 space already housed in Y3. A new School of Engineering building will achieve the aim to co-locate as much of the School's activity as possible, and it will provide the facilities needed in the long-term to allow the School the opportunity to grow significantly (both in terms of student numbers and research strength) and meet its ambitions to be one of the sector leaders for these Engineering disciplines.
