## About this tender

The University of Wolverhampton has bought the iconic old Springfield Brewery site in the centre of Wolverhampton, in order to develop it in to a smart specialisation hub for Construction and the Built Environment. This will act as a catalyst for the regeneration of the local area, and the Black Country, commencing with the opening of the West Midlands Construction UTC in November 2016, followed by the Elite Centre for Manufacturing Skills in June 2017. The University will shortly be going out to tender to seek a design and build contractor to partner with the University to deliver the move of their own School of Architecture and Built Environment (SOABE) to the site in 2019.

A BREEAM rating of â&#128;&#152;Very Goodâ&#128;&#153; has been targeted that will take into account the new build, refurbishment and fit out elements. The construction value for the project will be circa Â£20 million. The form of contract will be the JCT 2011 Design and Build Contract. Design is due to be issued at RIBA Stage 3 with the Main Contractor developing the scheme from RIBA Stage 4 to 6.
