Summary of the contracting process

The University of Chichester is seeking a competent contractor for a measured term contract focused on the "light touch" refurbishments of student residences at the Bishop Otter Campus in Chichester. This tender, classified under the Building Completion Work (CPV 45400000), includes refurbishments across multiple blocks such as Petworth, Arundel, Duncton, Ifold, Loxwood, and Midhurst. The procurement process is at the tender stage, with a closing date for submissions set for 17th February 2025 at 09:00. The total value of the contract is estimated at £300,000, and the contract period is from 21st March 2025 to 20th March 2028.

This tender offers significant opportunities for growth, particularly for SMEs, given the project's sizeable scope and continued demand for refurbishments. Businesses specialising in building completion work, especially those experienced in the education sector, are well-positioned to compete. The open procedure below the threshold allows various businesses to bid, offering flexible pricing options based on the scale of work undertaken. Additionally, with refurbishments taking place year-round but avoiding the summer conference season, businesses can efficiently schedule work around these constraints. Successful appointment could enhance a contractor's portfolio and foster enduring collaboration with the University of Chichester.

Notice Title

Bishop Otter Campus: Measured Term Contract for student residences Courtyard Blocks "light touch" refurbishments

Notice Description

The University of Chichester is looking to appoint a competent contractor to undertake a rolling series of "light touch" refurbishments of its "Courtyard blocks" at its Bishop Otter Campus in Chichester comprising: * Petworth "Block" (3 flats, 18 bedrooms in total) * Arundel "Block" (2 flats, 11 bedrooms in total) * Duncton "Block" (2 flats, 12 bedrooms in total) * Ifold "Block" (3 flats, 18 bedrooms in total) * Loxwood "Block": Halls 1, 2, 3 and 4 (24 bedrooms in total) * Midhurst Block (3 flats, 17 bedrooms to total) A measured term contract is to be let for this work which will provide a "framework" under which the successful contractor can be appointed to refurbish rooms around their availability. The tender documents include a pricing schedule allowing works to be priced differently depending upon whether rooms are refurbished individually, as an entire flat or the block as a whole. Some works are only relevant to these larger scale interventions. Availability of rooms can be throughout the year and not specifically limited to either term-time or vacations. Current planning however is that the summer conference season (typically late June - September) is to be avoided for works on site. The lifespan of the contract will be 3 years. There is no guarantee however that the University will be able to release all rooms for refurbishment over this timeframe. Full details of our requirements are available in the tender documents and pricing schedule. All tender documents, Questions and Answers are open to all bidders. Please send your completed submission to the University by the closing date of 17th February at 09:00, (9am) to tenders@chi.ac.uk. Please note, we do not accept submissions via fi le transfer sites. tenders@chi.ac.uk accepts emails and attachments of up to 35MB and it is acceptable to submit in more than one email.
