About this contract

The University is seeking a Design and Build Contractor for the development of the North East Quadrant ("NEQ") site in Southampton, Hampshire. The North-East Quadrant ("NEQ") site forms part of the Highfield Campus. The site area is approximately 12,290m². Phase 1 consists of the construction of a 4-storey teaching facility (GIFA of c. 15,574m2), with 5 storeys, a basement, and ancillary facilities hub. The building is split into three interconnected areas arranged around a central atrium. The west block consists of a concrete structure with the east / south proposed to be of a steel frame. The external wall solution will be evolved during stage 3. Sustainability and low energy solutions are key to the success of this building due to lack of local power. The works include amendments to external landscaping, and all associated works to meet all planning and building control requirements stipulated elsewhere within the Employer's Requirements. Any S278 works will be delivered as part of an agreement between the selected contractor and Southampton City Council. The successful Contractor will be required to work alongside the Client design team via a PCSA agreement through Stage 3 and Stage 4, at which point a contract sum can be agreed. It is the intention that a separate "Enabling Works"contract will be completed during the Pre-Construction period. The University proposes to enter into a Contract for the delivery of the NEQ Project by Q1 2027 with the successful contractor. The University will appoint the successful contractor via a PCSA appointment in 2024 to deliver pre-construction services, but also a separate enabling works contract, which should de-risk the site prior to agreement of the contract sum for the main works.
