Summary
Machine-generated summaryThe Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft is seeking a framework agreement for building design services covering new builds, extensions, conversions, modernisation, repairs and maintenance. The required planning office must be experienced in working with existing highly technical buildings, since most projects take place in occupied research premises, including laboratory and office buildings classified as special structures. Call-offs come from Fraunhofer institutes in the Region 20_02 area, mainly around Freiburg, and new institutes or institute parts assigned to the region may also use the agreement. Services are commissioned stepwise for HOAI phases 2-4 and 5-8, with fee zones 2 and 3 at the basic fee rate, following RBBau model contracts. The framework runs for two years with one optional two-year extension, and the maximum cumulative call-off volume is EUR 300,000 plus VAT.
