## Summary

The University of Bedfordshire is seeking contractors for the Science Building project located at its Luton Campus, with a total budget of £20 million. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the contract will encompass a two-stage design and build process, which includes both pre-construction services and the subsequent construction works. The tender period concluded on 20th July 2016, while the contract period is set to commence from 21st September 2016 and extend until 21st September 2017. The project is classified under construction work, specifically identified by the CPV code 45000000.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for construction firms interested in expanding their portfolio, particularly in the education sector. Companies with expertise in large-scale construction and project management would be well-suited to compete for this contract. Moreover, businesses that can demonstrate experience in design and build processes, landscaping, and service relocation may gain a competitive advantage in this multi-use Science building project, enhancing teaching and research capabilities at the University.

## Notice

The University wishes to appoint a contractor under a two stage design and build process for the design and construction of a new build, multi-use Science building located at the University's Luton Campus; and which will improve and enhance the teaching and research capabilities of the University's Campus. The works required also include external landscaping, relocation of existing incoming site wide services and other ancillary works. The contractor appointed will initially be appointed under a pre-construction services agreement to carry out the pre-construction services stage (the first stage) including confirming the total price for the subsequent construction works (the second stage). In the second stage, the University anticipates appointing the contractor to complete the Stage F design of the new building, complete the required sub-contractor tendering for the project, and undertake the construction works. It is anticipated that the University will also novate the appointment of some of the members of the design team to the appointed contractor.
