.gif)
Support services and construction company Carillion has won three high quality building projects for private sector customers, worth £121 million - a £50 million project for Segro plc in Farnborough, a £45 million contract for the new Greater Manchester Police Authority Headquarters and an extension to its existing contract for the Rolls Building in London worth £26 million.
The design and build contract for Segro is for four concrete frame, panel clad office buildings, which will provide 22,000 square metres of space together with car parking for 1,100 cars via multi-deck car park of six upper levels, as well as external works. The contract is due for completion in May 2010.
The new £45 million GMPA Headquarters contract is for an ASK/Goodman Joint Venture.
Located at Manchester Central Park, the new HQ will provide accommodation for around 1,500 people in a six-storey pre-cast concrete and glass building, designed to meet the needs of complex inter-department relationships and operations. Arranged around a central atrium, open plan offices will encourage interaction between departments and strengthen communication.
The building has been designed to achieve an excellent BREEAM rating. The contract is due for completion in early 2011.
The £26 million extension to the contract with Delancey and Invista Real Estate for the Rolls Building, involves the fit out of 180,000 square feet on behalf of the tenant, Her Majesty's Courts Service.
The Rolls Building will consolidate the work of various jurisdictions of the High Court, which are currently dispersed across a number of properties into one modern facility, which is also designed to achieve an excellent BREEAM rating.
Commenting, Carillion Chief Executive, John McDonough said: "We are delighted to have secured these projects, in line with our strategy of focusing on high quality work for key customers. As a leader in sustainable solutions, we look forward to working with these customers to deliver first-class buildings, designed to high standards of sustainability."
