Description

Auto-translated from Dutch

The City Theater (municipal monument approx. 7,500m2 GFA) is due for large-scale renovation: demolition of the stage tower, 'back house', and other non-monumental parts. The main hall and entrance will be adapted, and a small hall and stage tower will be added, among other things. The integrated design team has designed a suitable, contemporary, sustainable, accessible, and future-proof City Theater (approx. 10,500 m2 GFA). Circular demolition/harvesting and site preparation (incl. archaeological research) are already underway. Municipality of Arnhem is seeking a contractor(s) combination for the construction, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and fixed furnishings in one lot; a cooperation and knowledge partner; a partner who can elaborate and realize. The Municipality has sought an optimal balance between the certainty of design choices and the input of knowledge and expertise from executing parties, with an acceptable distribution of risks and returns. This has been shaped in the contract form and tendering procedure. 1
