Notice Amendments

Amendment 1

Change (11.2.4): This will be a full turn-key solution with one main contractor, and it will be based upon the NEC3 Form of Contract. The requirement will be to renovate an existing storage building at our site in Blyth, Northumberland, which is approximately 1800m2 in floorspace. Within the building a requirement exists to create in the region of 550m2 of office and welfare space, with the remaining space being configured for testing and engineering workshops. Works are likely to include refurbishment of steel works, replacement of the cladding, some ground works, replacement of doors, as well as complete fit out of the interior, including furnishings. Full occupancy is expected by Q2 of 2023, with renovation costs estimated in the region of £1.8m, which is being funded by a combination of the Blyth Town Deal and the North of Tyne combined Authority. → Offshore Renewable Energy (“ORE”) Catapult has a requirement to build a Technology Development Centre (“TDC”) and to do so, it needs to refurbish an existing storage building at our site in Blyth, Northumberland, which is approximately 1800m2 in floorspace.
