Bau eines neuen Laborgebäudes (Holt 2 Lab), konzipiert und gebaut nach Containment Level 3 (CL3) Standards

SCOPE OF WORKS: Construction of a new laboratory building designed and built to operate at Containment Level 3 (CL3), on a greenfield site within the existing boundary of Forest Research's Alice Holt Research Station in Farnham, Surrey, UK. The new 'Holt 2' research facility will be a purpose-built expansion of existing facilities at Forest Research's Alice Holt Research Station, designed to significantly enhance the UK's capability and capacity to study tree pests and pathogens in controlled environments. The new facility will significantly increase the capacity of the existing Holt 1 containment laboratory. Full specifications will be provided in the Specification Documents once the Invitation to Tender is released. The project overview document is attached to this notice. CONTRACT STRATEGY: Traditional construction works, turnkey contract (Client-supplied detailed design & specification) on a fixed lump sum basis using the NEC4 ECC Main Option A - Priced contract with Activity Schedule. Performance Bond (10%), and Parent Company Guarantees (where applicable). Liquidated damages for delay are anticipated to be set at £700 per day, subject to confirmation in the ITT. DESIGN STRATEGY: At the time of issuing the ITT, detailed design and specification for all elements (RIBA Stage 4) will have been completed (and included in the ITT); the appointed turnkey contractor will take responsibility from, and progress from, the start of RIBA Stage 5 onwards. It is anticipated that the ITT may include an option (or alternative) for the novation of client‑supplied designs to the turnkey contractor. Note that certain proprietary equipment and supply chain requirements will be specified within the ITT where necessary to meet technical and operational requirements of the contract works. The new building is required to achieve a BREEAM Excellent rating, demonstrating a high standard of environmental performance and sustainability. Note: A Planning Application has been submitted for this build. The contract scope includes all works and services required to deliver the laboratory as a fully operational, CL3‑validated containment facility, as outlined above, on a turnkey basis. This includes traditional building construction works—such as foundations, structural steelwork, cladding, building services and landscaping—as well as specialist laboratory and containment facility works.
