Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham Trent University procured construction and civil engineering works for the Clifton Campus car park and vehicle barrier infrastructure. The requirement covers the car park and barriers, with the detailed scope set out in the tender documentation. The work is for the university’s Clifton Campus in Nottingham. It is classified as works for complete or part construction and civil engineering work. This is a single-site campus infrastructure requirement rather than a supply-only contract, so it is most relevant to building contractors and civil engineering firms with experience delivering car parks, access-control infrastructure or associated external works. The university is the buyer and the requirement forms part of its estate and campus facilities works in Nottingham.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold open competition. Bridge Construction Ltd was selected for the single lot, and the contract was signed on 13 July 2026. The contract runs from 14 July to 31 August 2026 and has a gross value of £250,000. The tender deadline was 18 May 2026 at 12:00, with enquiries closing on 11 May 2026 at 12:00. Electronic submission was allowed. Evaluation weighted cost of work at 60%, technical capability at 25%, health and safety at 10%, and sustainability at 5%. The lot was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The awarded contract remains recorded as active.

For a future requirement of this type, credible competitors would need to deliver car park and barrier construction or related civil engineering works, with a practical ability to manage a short campus-based construction programme. The evaluation shows that price is important, but technical capability, health and safety and sustainability together accounted for 40% of the assessment. Suppliers should therefore be able to demonstrate relevant construction experience, sound project delivery methods, effective site and workforce safety controls, and proportionate environmental practices. The opportunity was suitable for SMEs, indicating that a smaller contractor with the right technical resources and delivery capacity could compete. Firms serving Nottingham Trent University’s estate should treat this procurement as evidence of demand for campus infrastructure works from the university.
