Summary of the contracting process

The University of Kent initiated a public procurement process to address rainwater ingress at the Dolche Vita restaurant on the Canterbury campus, which required skilled contractors for remediation work. The tender, titled "Keynes College Dolche Vita Leak Remediation," falls within the construction and building maintenance sector, particularly focusing on the installation of doors, windows, and related components, as well as repair services. This tender was conducted as an open competition, beginning with the tender stage and resulting in an award. The related contract commenced on 16th June 2025 and concluded on 28th July 2025.
