## Description
The TIC Zone Development project occupies a key role in cultivating and nurturing Scotland’s innovation community, helping bring together researchers, academic administrators, entrepreneurs, public and private investors, and many other key stakeholders.
Central to Strathclyde University’s Innovation Strategy is the goal to escalate the impact and reach of the innovation eco-system by creating new centres of expertise. The objectives of this particular project revolve around the further development of this eco-system based on “open innovation” by delivering facilities that will catalyse an Innovation District in the centre of Glasgow anchored by the University.
This will accelerate the impact of creativity and new ideas by crystallising an exciting, co-located community of industry, investors, and academics that will support the growth of six new clusters – Quantum, Space, 5G, Health Technology, Industrial Informatics and FinTech, as well as the three existing cluster groups – Energy, Pharmaceutical Manufacturing, and Enabling Technologies.
It is anticipated that the TIC Zone Development may comprise of two new stand-alone buildings either side of the existing TIC Building (TIC Central) that will accommodate a range of collaborative research facilities at the heart of Scotland’s first Innovation District. At 20,000 sqm gross internal area, TIC East is located on High Street, College Street and Shuttle Street. At 10,000 sqm gross internal area, TIC West is located on Ingram Street and Albion Street, south of the Inovo building.
The University is currently exploring the option of accommodating TIC West within the existing estate by means of refurbishment of an existing building.
To ensure that this option is captured in this procurement process the University have set the following Lot structure.
Lot 1- Design and Construction of a new build TIC East and TIC West
