University of St Andrews - Estates: Main Contractor for PSR Building Refurbishment Overview of the Contract Requirement: Eden Campus occupies a significant area of land north of St. Andrews and will be developed by the University as part of a separate phased masterplan.

The project will include the partial demolition of annexe buildings, the redevelopment and refurbishment of the main paper mill buildings and construction of a new entrance block, (please refer to supporting information). The existing buildings vary in age, construction type and levels of disrepair and must be carefully and sensitively redeveloped and brought back to life. Building shown around the site on the location plan aerial view have already been demolished and cleared. The creation of a better storage infrastructure will allow the transfer of library stock from the Main Library within St Andrews freeing up valuable are to be converted into additional study spaces, toilets and breakout areas. The associated refurbishment/remodelling of the Main Library works are not included within this scope. Building 33 has been proposed for demolition to allow for a new entrance building to be created which is set back off the main street creating a signpost for cycle and pedestrian access to the new campus, Buildings 31, 31A are proposed to accommodate a mixture of general collections storage, cafe/social spaces and staff support services on level 1, with open plan Support Staff workspace on level 2. Buildings 32 and 32A are dedicated to staff support services with allocated lettable space also provided. The project will be delivered in a phased manner, allowing for sectional completion to facilitate the migration of staff and Library stock from other buildings during non-term periods. The works will also be undertaken alongside other separate construction projects being undertaken on the Eden site, all of which must be fully coordinated to minimise disruption. The Main Contractor must work collaboratively with other partner projects on the masterplan site, and must be able to demonstrate a robust understanding and experience of working with challenging existing buildings..
