Summary of the contracting process

The University of Worcester is seeking suppliers for its tender entitled "UOW719 Linen Hire/Laundry Services," focusing on goods within the linen industry. The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with submissions open until 2nd May 2019. The contract is set to commence on 15th June 2019 and will run for one year until 14th June 2020. This tender allows for submissions for two distinct lots: Lot 1 for seasonal linen hire during peak summer periods, and Lot 2 for on-demand linen services for events at the Worcester Arena, located in the West Midlands (postcode WR2 6AJ). The chosen procurement method is an open procedure below the threshold, enabling a diverse range of suppliers to participate.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the linen and laundry service sectors to expand their operations. Companies specialising in linen rental and laundry collection services would be particularly well-suited to compete, especially those prepared to handle peak seasonal demands and event-specific requirements. The flexible lot structure allows multiple suppliers to be appointed, increasing competitive chances for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) prepared to meet the specific needs of the University of Worcester.
