Description

UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) have a requirement for the refurbishment of the 1894 Building at the UK Astronomy Technology Centre (UK ATC) in Edinburgh and will be undertaking a preliminary market engagement exercise in advance. We are seeking to procure a main contractor to deliver the full refurbishment works. This follows an earlier phase of early contractor engagement during RIBA Stage 3, where a consultant contractor was appointed to advise buildability and logistics. This project forms part of the UK Net Zero Carbon Buildings Standard (UKNZCBS) Pilot Programme and aims to deliver a comprehensive refurbishment of the Category A-listed 1894 Building. The works will target Net Zero Carbon (NZC) in operation while preserving the building’s historic character and enhancing its functionality for future scientific and operational use. The Scope of Works Includes: • External Repairs and Envelope Upgrades • Conservation and repair of the external fabric • Thermal performance improvements to meet NZC targets • Internal Remodelling and Fit-Out • Reconfiguration of internal layouts • Installation of several new lifts • Creation of new meeting rooms and spaces within the West Tower • Rooftop Extension • Small-scale rooftop extension to house a lift and stairwell • Sustainability Integration • Delivery in line with UKNZCBS energy and embodied carbon targets • Coordination with the design team and sustainability consultant
