### Lot Information

Lot 1

The University is planning the redevelopment of its campus at Scalloway, Shetland Isles, a project which funded is being sought from both the Scottish and UK Governments through the Our Islands Our Deal. The proposal is to create modern, high quality learning and training facilities and innovative approaches to digital and distance learning, tailored to the specific needs of Shetland's communities. This will involve transforming existing spaces at the Scalloway campus to both increase the attractiveness of the campus for traditional, on-campus students and, through the integration of new technologies, enable a greater degree of outreach to our more remote learners and island businesses. In addition, a range of mobile facilities and equipment will be established that further enable our outreach capability. The redeveloped spaces will be designed to address many aspects of socio-economic disadvantage and inequalities of outcome within the student body. In implementing this proposal, we are aiming to enrich the quality of our educational experience on offer in the Shetland Islands and deliver it directly to our wider community. In doing so, it is hoped that this redevelopment will contribute to improving the age structure of the Island's population by encouraging retention and inward migration. The redevelopment will also be required to support education, training and design in fields such as alternative energy technologies, hydrogen energy and wind power, improving our capability to contribute to the realisation of a net-zero carbon economy. Furthermore, the redevelopment will contribute to the development of Shetland's emerging space sector, through the provision of tailored learning and training spaces and equipment. The Scope of Work for the element of the Campus Redevelopment covered by this ITT is the conversion of the top floor of Port Arthur House into modern, open plan, office accommodation. This will cover RIBA Stage 4 - Technical Design, Stage 5 - Manufacturing and Construction and Stage 6 - Handover.
