They also include construction companies for project value up to \u00a32.5m, and one for project values \u00a32.5m-10m, plus client-side surveying support, architectural-led design and engineering services design.<\/p>\n<p>BAM\u2019s previous works for the University of Birmingham dates back to the 1990s when it conducted some refurbishments, then in 2000, creating the Computer Science and Primary Care Building, a Biomedical Research Building in 2001 and the Bramall Music Building in 2012.<\/p>\n<p>BAM is behind three major office developments at the moment; One and Two Chamberlain Square which is almost complete, Three Snowhill which completed early this year, and the in-progress 103 Colmore Row, which on completion will become the highest office building outside of London.<\/p>\n<h3>Cutting edge technology and collaboration<\/h3>\n<p>Steve Roome, BAM\u2019s framework director, said: \u201cWe did our first higher education work here in 1966, and have built dozens of higher education buildings since and across the UK are acknowledged as a market leader in the education sector. Last year we were named as education contractor of the year, and we won the first-ever safety award from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/organisations\/department-for-education\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Department for Education<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve built several times for the university before, and what is of special significance for us is the highly collaborative nature of the framework.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our way of working is a combination of cutting edge technology and a collaborative attitude which is second nature to our people. It is not an exaggeration to say that the new framework represents exactly the way we like to create buildings.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In a city with so much world-class heritage and potential it\u2019s great to see ambition being realised.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BAM Construction has been appointed to a new 10-year construction framework by the University of Birmingham.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[304],"tags":[13038,24813,676,997,3649,1006,685,639,780,1009],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-73337","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-planning-construction-news","7":"tag-building","8":"tag-building-contracts","9":"tag-construction","10":"tag-development","11":"tag-education","12":"tag-galliford-try","13":"tag-morgan-sindall","14":"tag-procurement","15":"tag-collaboration","16":"tag-willmott-dixon"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>BAM wins place on Birmingham Uni construction framework<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"BAM, the firm behind a third of a billion of new office buildings within half a mile in the city centre, has been appointed to a new 10-year framework\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/framework-university-of-birmingham\/73337\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"BAM wins place on Birmingham Uni construction framework\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"BAM Construction has been appointed to a new 10-year construction framework by the University of Birmingham.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/framework-university-of-birmingham\/73337\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
