Design and construction timelines: 2016 to 2019

In December 2015, VIS Group won the open tender of the Ministry of Economy of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) for the right to conclude a public-private partnership agreement for the design, creation and maintenance of preschool, general and supplementary education and cultural facilities in the city of Yakutsk.

As part of the signed agreement, VIS Group used its own and borrowed funds to implement the design, construction, equipping and landscaping of the premises of social facilities being created, and after putting the facilities into operation, it assumed obligations for the technical operation of buildings until the end of 2026.

The simultaneous construction of 12 social infrastructure facilities made the project unprecedented for the region. In fact, a new material and technical base of educational and cultural facilities that comply the most modern requirements and standards, has been formed in the capital of Yakutia. This is the largest social project in Yakutia, thanks to which almost 3,000 new seats have appeared in educational institutions in a few years.

Modern buildings equipped with innovative equipment have created fundamentally new conditions for the comprehensive development of children and the development of creative initiative. The completed new educational institutions have replaced the completely obsolete wooden buildings, which were still functioning until recently.

The PPP project contributed to the integrated development of the premises and allowed to create new points for the city’s development. Comprehensive landscaping, carried out as part of the construction of social facilities, provided for the creation of new public and recreational spaces with park areas, sports grounds, and mass event venues. The new facilities have formed a comfortable urban environment around them. Thanks to original projects and the landscaping of adjacent territories, 12 new public spaces have appeared in the capital of the republic.
