Tender for Main Contract for Circle House

Lejerbo, a public housing administration organization established in 1944 managing approximately 35,000 homes across Denmark, is seeking a main contractor for the Circle House project. This initiative aims to construct a new housing development comprising 60 public housing units, along with communal and service areas, located in Lisbjerg, near Aarhus. Lejerbo intends for Circle House to be the world's first public housing project built according to circular economy principles. This means the construction must be designed for disassembly, allowing used elements to be reused without significant loss of value. A comprehensive, collaborative process involving various construction industry stakeholders has preceded this tender. The project's development has received support from Realdania and the Danish Environmental Protection Agency's Development and Demonstration Programme (MUDP), culminating in the lighthouse project, Circle House. The overarching goal of Circle House is to develop and disseminate knowledge about circular construction throughout the industry, breaking down traditional silos. Consequently, the project development has brought together over 60 different companies across the entire construction value chain. The objective is to create a scalable, circular lighthouse construction project that is tendered and built under market conditions. Interested parties can find more information about the project's background on Lejerbo's website. The tender documents are available at https://ribsoftware.dk/ TN887432A.
