## Summary

The Arts University Bournemouth (AUB) has initiated a procurement process for the construction of a Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) structure for the AUB Innovation Studio, aimed at fostering digital and creative industries in Dorset. This open tender, with a contract valued at £570,280, is in the award stage as of October 26, 2018. The project is scheduled to begin on October 29, 2018, with a completion date set for July 31, 2019. Interested parties must submit their proposals by January 1, 2018, to be considered for this project, which falls under the works category, specifically focusing on construction and laminated wood products, within the South West region of the UK.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in construction, particularly those with expertise in engineered wood products and sustainable building practices. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as they may meet the qualification requirements set forth by AUB. Contractors capable of providing prefabricated CLT and who have experience working on similar projects will be particularly well-suited to compete for this lucrative contract, central to the development of an innovation hub in the region.
