Published description

All the Contractor Services required will be focused at HSE's Science & Research Centre at Harpur Hill in Buxton, Derbyshire. HSE's Buxton site extends to 550 acres of land, located less than 3 miles from the centre of Buxton. The site is comprised of a 17,000m² laboratory building completed in 2004, which is operated under a PFI (Public Finance Initiative) Contract, and approximately 100 other buildings and scientific test facilities measuring 11,000m², in total, spread across 550 acres. HSE have a requirement to create a new gas incident investigation laboratory and evidence store within existing buildings 42 and 45. The buildings require various backlog maintenance works, including replacement of precast concrete lintels, roofing and associated fabric upgrades. Additionally, upgrades are required to the gas main to increase the incoming supply to allow for concurrent testing of appliances. Refurbishing Building 42 will allow Science Division to continue further research on current HSE research projects within a dedicated facility, freeing up space within their current location for other usage. A dedicated facility will also allow for hosting clients for testing and research purposes. Delivery of this project will support the HSE Science, engineering and analysis division, via an increased capacity for incident investigations and research work into new gas technologies.
