UCL — Ramsay Hall Refurbishment
Located in the Fitzrovia Conservation Area, Ramsay Hall is located adjacent to the Grade II Indian YMCA. The project includes for the design, procurement, construction and handover of the completed building across a phased programme. The building is divided up into 4 separate named blocks referred to as London, Paris, New York and Rome which to some extent each occupy a frontage on one of the above streets. The accommodation blocks are arranged around a large central courtyard which also houses another separate accommodation block, Ian Baker House, constructed in 2008. The scope allows for a high-quality end product with the potential to be UCL’s flagship student accommodation building. This scope includes refurbishment of the existing asset, extension of Rome block and significant landscaping work to the central courtyard.

Any contract or agreement resulting from acceptance of the Invitation to Tender (ITT) will be considered as a Contract made in England according to English Law and subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts. UCL does not bind itself to accept any tender and reserves the right to accept any part of the tender. No contract capable of acceptance will be created between UCL and any party until a contract is executed between UCL and the selected providers. Expressions of interest must be in the form of a completed Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (PQQ) to be received as per the instructions in the OJEU notice. Expressions of interest not submitted in the required format or containing all the requested information may be rejected. The tender process is being conducted electronically via In-tend.
