Summary of the contracting process

The London Metropolitan University is entering a contract for 'Student Accommodation Nominations' to provide student accommodation in close proximity to the University, with quality service standards and value for money. This process is currently at the Award stage, with the intention to finalise the contract on or after 27 July 2021, following a mandatory 10-day standstill period initiated by the publication of the award notice. The total value of the contract is estimated at £2,700,000, and was justified under the Negotiated Procedure without Prior Publication due to the absence of suitable tenders during a previous Open Procedure conducted in 2020.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses in the accommodation services sector, particularly those capable of providing high-quality student housing solutions. Companies that specialise in accommodation provision, particularly those experienced in managing facilities that meet the needs of students, would be well-positioned to engage in future contracts. The focus on quality and value indicates a demand for reliable suppliers who can ensure operational stability and compliance with the University’s specifications and standards.
