Description

The University of Leicester is seeking to appoint a contractor to build the Space Park Leicester. Space Park Leicester will create a new campus to the north of the city centre, close to the National Space Centre, and build on our world class strengths in space and earth observation science.
This procurement is for phase 1 with a net construction cost of 14M GBP (and potentially future phases worth an additional 66M GBP) which is a University building of just under 5,000m2 gross internal floor area (GIFA) providing accommodation for teaching, offices and laboratories in two three- and four- storey wings linked by an entrance and atrium.
The University wishes to enter into a single stage procurement process with the open market. The project will be delivered via a Design and Build form of construction contract, utilising the JCT suite of contract documents, with established University amendments.
