Notice Title

General Building Works Framework

Notice Description

To submit a bid, please sign up to our e-tendering portal In Tend at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/lancaster/aspx/Home. You should then be able to download the documentation, fill out, and submit back. Please ensure any clarifications are sent through In Tend with ample time to respond before the deadline. This is a framework contract for General Building Works which shall encompass and deliver general building and refurbishment, or improvement works on projects above the value of PS25k. Our previous iteration of this framework was used for works up to PS1.3million, however contractors should be aware that projects of this size are very rare, with 50% of awards made on the previous framework being for projects valued at between PS25,000 and PS50,000, and another 40% of awards being for projects valued between PS50,001 and PS500,000. The framework will predominantly involve working with our existing buildings and may be of a multi-disciplinary nature, whereby the contractors on the framework will be expected to, and capable of, managing their own sub-contractors on a project-by-project basis (no more than 50% of the work is to be sub-contracted). The majority of Lancaster Unviersity's buildings are on the main campus, with a number of satellite buildings within a two-mile radius of Bailrigg. The projects are likely to be varied in nature but will fundamentally involve work on our existing buildings, either internally or externally. Typically, this framework is likely to be used for office fit-outs, remodelling and refurbishment, accessibility and safety alterations and improvements, and fire safety improvement works. It will not include groundworks, civil engineering, high value new builds, or reactive maintenance with a value of less than PS25k.
