Parr Architects - PR Feb 04:
The Parr Partnership has been named as one of five UK architectural firms
to be awarded 2nd Generation agreements by BAA to support its capital
investment programme over the next five years. The new agreements, taking
effect from January 2004, cover work at BAA's seven UK airports (excluding
work on Heathrow's Terminal 5 - Richard
Rogers Architects).
The other successful architects are Foster
& Partners, Grimshaw
Asociates, Reid
Architecture and Ruddle Wilkinson.
The Parr Partnership's proven track record in aviation projects was vital
to their success in being chosen as one of BAA's architectural partners:
they have completed major projects at Glasgow, Edinburgh and Birmingham
Airports. A rigorous selection process enabled BAA to whittle down the
list of applicants to five who demonstrated a commitment to design quality,
cost control and achieving value for money as well as having the available
resources to work on a number of projects simultaneously.
Bob Hall of The Parr Partnership says "I am delighted that our previous
experience has been recognised with our appointment to the framework and
we look forward to working with BAA again in support of its capital investment
programme."
BAA also appointed three Building Services Engineers: AMEC Group Ltd,
Hoare Lea and WSP Buildings Ltd and four Structural Engineers: Buro Happold,
Halcrow, Whitbybird and WSP Buildings Ltd as part of the new 2nd generation
design consultants group.
The Parr Partnership is currently working as part of several other framework
agreements including a national Job Centre Plus rebranding programme for
the Department of Work and Pensions, the Tesco Centre of Excellence Consultancy
and 'Project SLAM', which aims to provide single living accommodation
for all Ministry of Defence facilities within 5 years.
