Summary of the contracting process

Royal Holloway and Bedford New College procured overhaul and refurbishment works for student residences, covering kitchens and bathrooms. The work is being delivered in the South East of England, for the university’s accommodation estate. The requirement is a planned, phased refurbishment programme rather than a single installation project, with work intended to take place across the university’s three financial years and subject to budget approval. The procurement falls within the construction and building refurbishment sector, specifically kitchen and bathroom modernisation. The buying organisation is Royal Holloway and Bedford New College, based at Royal Holloway University of London in Egham. The selected contractor is Mulalley & Company Limited, a large construction business.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Mulalley & Company Limited on 11 August 2026. It used the LHC Refurbishment & Modernisation (RM3) framework, Workstream 1 for Kitchens and Bathrooms, Value Band 3. The award value is £10,000,000. The estimated procurement range was £6,000,000 to £10,000,000. The contract runs from 29 July 2026 to 28 July 2029, with delivery planned in phases across the university’s three financial years and individual contracts subject to budget approval. The tender submission deadline was 28 July 2026. Royal Holloway and Bedford New College is the buyer. The requirement was classified as works and concerns overhaul and refurbishment activity for student residences.

This award indicates demand for substantial, multi-year student accommodation refurbishment covering both kitchens and bathrooms. A credible future competitor would need to manage phased works across an occupied or operational university estate, coordinate multiple work packages and maintain consistent delivery over a sizeable programme. Relevant capability includes kitchen and bathroom renewal, building refurbishment, construction project management, scheduling, cost control, health and safety, quality assurance and coordination with the university and its accommodation users. The procurement route also shows the value of access to the LHC Refurbishment & Modernisation framework, particularly its Kitchens and Bathrooms workstream and the relevant value band. A business seeking similar work would need the organisational capacity, financial strength and delivery record expected of a large refurbishment contractor.
