As the client and developer of the project, Senate Properties is responsible for the construction, maintenance, and development of state-owned properties and work environments.

The company follows the state’s price-based lease system, where rents cover property investments, maintenance, and associated costs.

SRV project director Harri Martin said: “The new National Repository Library is an important building for society, serving citizens and researchers all over Finland. We participated in Senate Properties’ competitive negotiation procedure, during which our design and engineering team planned the buildings and premises on the plot we acquired.

“When finished, the facilities will enable the end-user to operate efficiently for decades to come. We were delighted to win the contract with our high-quality solution and continue our long-term cooperation with Senate Properties. We are currently working for Senate Properties on the construction of the new main police station and prison in Oulu and the new main police station and police jail in Vantaa [both cities in the country].”

The project is expected to complete by the end of 2024.
