Technopark is set to have a prefabricated IT office building with approximately two lakh sq. ft. of total built-up area at its Phase III campus in the capital. The park has now invited e-tenders from reputed developers to design and construct the prefabricated IT office building. The project covers the design, engineering, procurement, construction, testing, and commissioning of the proposed prefabricated IT office building on a design-and-build basis.

Minister for Industries and IT P.K.Kunhalikutty will lay the foundation stone for the building at a function to be held on Tuesday. An area of 1.5 acres has been set aside for the building in the Phase III campus. Bidders shortlisted from Stage 1 will be invited to present their project execution strategy before a Technical Evaluation Committee (TEC) comprising both internal representatives and external domain experts.

The contract period is 15 months. A pre-bid meeting will be held at Park Centre, Technopark Phase-I on October 23. This will be the second prefabricated IT building to come up at Technopark. Last year, the construction of a 50,000 square feet sustainable workspace began at the Phase I campus and is nearing completion.

With many companies waiting to set shop within the Technopark campus, the expansion of the available office space is being done using prefabricated technology as it will aid faster construction.
