Swansea University is looking to procure a development partner to carry out an expansion and development works on, or near to, its Bay Campus.
The works will comprise the construction of Academic Facilities envisaged to be over two sites on the Bay Campus to support the movement of certain departments from Singleton Campus to the new Bay Campus. One of the facilities to be developed is likely to house the relocated School of Law and include commercial space. The second may include accommodation for visiting academics. The total requirement will be for between 20 000 and 30 000 m
The works also comprise the construction of between 600 and 1 500 units of student accommodation. These units are required on or near to the Bay Campus to support the additional students who will be taught on site. The development partner must be able to provide a relevant site for the student accommodation which must be within a 3 km radius of the Bay Campus.
The works also comprise the potential construction and delivery of additional ancillary student space, welfare facilities and place-making such as (but not limited to) sports or music facilities.
The development partner will be expected to design and build the academic facilities and, if required, also the additional ancillary space, and to design, build, finance, maintain, and operate the student accommodation. The University's Memorandum of Information sets out its detailed requirements.
The estimated total value of the procurement ranges from 80 000 000 GBP to 200 000 000 GBP: this range reflects the potential differential between the minimum and maximum areas and number of student accommodation units to be provided.
