The City of Oulu invites applications for the contract as per the title of the invitation. This procurement involves the basic renovation of the protected cultural building Valve in Oulu city centre, as per the detailed plan. The contract type for the project is a Collaborative Design and Build contract (abbreviation SR), where the SR contractor acts as the main implementer of the project. The SR contractor is responsible for the design and implementation of the project in accordance with the procurement documents. Collaborative working refers to a contract and implementation model where the client and service providers jointly assume responsibility for the design, construction, schedules, costs, and quality of the project, and share the risks and opportunities of the project among themselves in accordance with the agreement used in the project. Characteristics of collaborative working include contractually separate phases (development and implementation phases), compensation bases (commercial model), division of responsibility, and other collaborative aspects such as practical arrangements.
