Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by the University of Staffordshire involves a contract for the Preconstruction Services Agreement (PCSA) stage for demolition, landscaping, and car park work at the Staffordshire Stoke on Trent Campus. The industry category is primarily related to building demolition, earthmoving, and landscaping. The procurement stage is complete, with the contract signed on 27th February 2026. The University of Staffordshire conducted this limited procurement process without prior publication of a call for competition, leveraging the Places for People Group framework. The contract, valued at £500,000, was awarded to Wilmot Dixon Construction Limited, who is already engaged with the university's Student Village Project.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses active in construction and landscaping industries to collaborate on large-scale infrastructure projects within educational campuses. While Wilmot Dixon Construction Limited was awarded the contract, companies that can offer competitive pricing, expertise in demolition and landscaping, and experience working within existing frameworks, like the Places for People Group, might find similar future projects rewarding. Small to medium businesses involved in earthmoving or specialised landscaping could benefit from developing partnerships or subcontracting opportunities with larger firms like Wilmot Dixon in ongoing or upcoming projects across university settings.
