Master building for local police department of Antwerp
The master building will be clearly decisive for the functioning and image of the Local Police Department of Antwerp. The building covers approximately 78,000 m² with additional area for 750 parking places and will be put on the market as a DBFM (Design, Build, Finance and Maintain). In the run up to this new master building, the designers and stakeholders have a powerful lever in their hands for innovation and change for the Local Antwerp Police.
Technical adviser role in the new master building project
As Technical Adviser, Sweco will assist the client in preparing the output specifications and tender documents as well as during the conducting of negotiations and concluding the contract. Additionally, Sweco is also acting as BREEAM assessor. During the process, REBEL Group and Eubelius advocaten are being worked closely with; they are respectively responsible for the financial/tax and legal components and with AGVESPA as principal.
