Three new schools in Bremerhaven were constructed using the Integrated Project Delivery (IPD/IPA) model, marking the first public-sector realization of IPD. The project functions as a pilot for gmp and as a nationwide reference for collaborative public construction. The school ensemble is designed for approximately 1,750 pupils and students. Phased openings began in summer 2025 with the Hamburger Straße School Center in Geestemünde and the New Lehe Secondary School. The New Lehe Elementary School followed in autumn 2025 as scheduled. The project establishes a precedent for collaborative delivery methods in public-sector building projects.
