The University intends to contract with the development partner pursuant to a strategic partnering agreement, which it anticipates in addition to the initial residences project, would grant an exclusive right in relation to a number of other projects within a prescribed area around TQEC. Additionally, given that the student numbers of the University are set to increase to c. 28,000 by 2024/25, the University anticipates that the strategic partnering agreement may also put in place a non-exclusive agreement to work as an on-going development partner for the future student accommodation and other building requirements to meet the University's growth requirements over an initial term of 5 years, but which may be extended by a further 5 years at the University's election. A supplier event will be held at the Engine Shed, Station Approach, Bristol BS1 6QH on Monday 11 December from 10am - 5pm. Prospective bidders are strongly encouraged to attend and must register to do so. The event will include a presentation from the University in the morning and the opportunity for individual sessions to ask questions in the afternoon. A maximum of two delegates from each organisation are permitted to attend. Please respond to the email address below to register to attend the supplier event.

The TQEC will make provision for around 3,000 students, with a current expectation that the majority of these will be postgraduate.

Current proposals are for a minimum of 1,000 beds and in the region of 43,400 sq m of academic buildings. It is anticipated that the student residences agreements will deliver an off balance sheet transaction (or one that has minimal impact on the University's balance sheet) and a capital receipt to the University.

It is anticipated that a special purpose vehicle ("SPV") will be formed and governed by a shareholders agreement, with the University also a shareholder. The SPV will form the primary contracting entity for the delivery of the student residences facility and the vehicle into which equity and sub-debt will be injected. The University envisages entering into a project agreement with the SPV for an operation term of c. 50 years (subject to dialogue) from practical completion; Run a competition to secure the financing for the SPV; Together with the University, procuring a building contractor / contractors for both the residential and academic buildings, as well as public realm (with delivery of residential and academic buildings under two separate contracts).
