First phase

In the first phase (2017), we assisted Befimmo in the evaluation of the design proposals and in the selection and composition of the multidisciplinary study team for this innovative project.

Second phase

In a second phase (2018 - 2019), Befimmo - assisted by the Study Team and the General Contractor - participated in the Design & Build competition commissioned by the Flemish Government. The core task of the competition was a high-performance office building of at least 70,000 sqm. We assisted Befimmo and its study team as bid managers during the different phases of the competition and the negotiations with the Flemish Government. The multifunctional design of our team was finally selected by the Flemish Government as finalist.

Third phase

During the third phase (2020 - 2023) - that of the further elaboration of the design and the realisation - we acted as project manager. We acted as project director and our team directed and coordinated the various study partners and disciplines, monitored the budget and disciplines, the planning and the quality and led the consultation moments with the Flemish Government and other external parties.
