## Summary

The UK Research & Innovation organisation is initiating a planned tender for the "BAS Glider Workshop & Ancillary Accommodation" project, valued at £300,000. The procurement process falls under the works category, specifically for constructing workshops. The project will take place in Cambridgeshire, and interested parties are encouraged to express their interest by emailing basprocurement@ukri.org. Further communication regarding the project is expected on 1 April 2022, with the tender preparation currently in the planning stage.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for construction companies, particularly those specialising in workshop construction and related installation services. Businesses equipped to handle steel fabrication, concrete underpinning, and internal mechanical and electrical installations will be particularly well-positioned to compete. The project's scope includes demolition, construction, and renovation of existing structures, making it an ideal opportunity for enterprises experienced in managing complex construction projects within restricted access environments.

## Notice

The project submitted for prior information notice is to remodel an existing steel frame at our site to form the new glider workshop and ancillary accommodation.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The existing structure is currently only used as a canopy roof protecting 4no. buildings beneath, and is approximately 220m2. All of these existing smaller structures are no longer fit for purpose and are earmarked for removal, therefore a good portion of the project is demolition and disposal of material arising. The existing steel frame would need to be reinforced and strengthened generally for additional wind loading. The existing concrete slab is suitable for re-use in our proposed scheme with some minor underpinning and cutting works to make fully suitable and safe. We plan to create four separate areas in the newly reinforced structure, comprising; a Wet Workshop (for wet testing and ballasting of gliders), a Dry Workshop (for electronics, comms and weighing), and 2no. separate supporting workshop spaces. All four areas will require internal M&E installations, new wall and floor finishes, limited fitted furniture etc. Additional information: Contractor to be able to provide; on site welding, steel fabrication and installation, concrete underpinning and pit construction, on site steel and concrete decorations, demolitions in a restricted access area (i.e. by hand), Kingspan roof and wall panel installation, Window & Door fitting, roller shutter door installation.
