Veidekke ASA: To build Finansparken in Stavanger
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Veidekke''s subsidiary Block Berge Bygg AS has been commissioned by Sparebank 1
SR-Bank to build Finansparken in Stavanger. At 22,600 m(2) in size, this will be
Norway''s largest commercial building using wood for load-bearing structures.
This contract is valued at NOK 406 million, excluding VAT.
There were four players in the final round for this building contract, and a
thorough evaluation process formed the basis of the choice. Overall, Block Berge
Bygg AS submitted the best offer, both in terms of price and quality.
"Block Berge Bygg AS submitted the best offer in terms of price and quality, and
it''s important that they also intend to use a large number of local
subcontractors. This could be of great significance for employment in building
and construction in the region at a difficult time," says CEO Arne Austreid of
Sparebank 1 SR-Bank.
"Obvously, we are very pleased to have been selected as contractor. This
provides a good basis for further development, and the project will undoubtedly
contribute to strengthen us as an industrial partner for our clients. This is
particularly pleasing at a time Rogaland is experiencing a far more difficult
building market than just a short while ago. On behalf of all of our employees
and partners, I''m particularly pleased that our local foundation and approach
has made a positive contribution. We are looking forward to good collaboration
with Sparebank 1 SR- Bank," says CEO Yngvar Karlsen of Block Berge Bygg.
The first ground will be broken after the summer, and according to plan, the
building will be completed medio 2019.
