Hazel: Design and Build of a childcare, after-school care and local academy

The project, for which a DB agreement will be concluded with a construction team (hereinafter: contractor), includes the design and construction of the Hazel project, which consists of a childcare center for 42 children, an after-school care center for 56 children and a classroom for the academy. The project area is located at Beneluxstraat 50, 9100 SINT-NIKLAAS and is known in the cadastral register as division 4, Section D, Plot 0741F, 0741e and 0741h. The adjacent Sint-Jansplein and Adolf Daensplein are part of a green lobe according to the Sint-Niklaas lobe city model. The future function of the site must therefore fit within this green lobe. Preference is therefore given to a community function that can be part of the green lobe where both biodiversity and social value can be high. The after-school care facility is now housed in a former school building. This effect remains present and is guaranteed during the entire DB command. The project also includes works for the temporary use of the BGO and KO premises by the Hermelijn childcare center with 72 child places during the renovation works on their building in Voskenslaan (Voskenslaan renovation works outside DB assignment. Duration +/- 1 year). These needs are included in the program of requirements in the award specifications. The project, part childcare, is partly subsidized by VIPA and must therefore strictly comply with all requirements in terms of design/execution in order to obtain the necessary approval. The estimated investment amount for the DB assignment is EUR 3,485,000.00 (excluding VAT and including fees). In the context of this assignment, the contractor must be responsible for the design (Design) and construction (Build). The contract is qualified as a government works contract, on the understanding that it also includes services, in particular the design and follow-up of the works by the contractor. A m
