Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham College procured refurbishment and improvement works at the Adams Building in Nottingham. The project was intended to relocate the college’s Hair and Beauty Salon and improve teaching and learning facilities. This is a construction and building-refurbishment requirement, classified under CPV 45453100. The work was procured through the Pagabo Framework DPS, indicating that the requirement was directed to suppliers participating in that purchasing arrangement. The buyer is Nottingham College, an education body based in Nottingham. The delivery address is recorded as the United Kingdom, while the project description identifies the Adams Building as the work location. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are contractors able to refurbish educational premises and adapt accommodation for specialist vocational teaching facilities, particularly salon and associated learning environments.

The procurement has reached completion and was awarded through a limited procedure without prior publication of a competition notice. Suppliers on the Pagabo DPS were invited to bid. The requirement was evaluated on quality at 40% and price at 60%, and two bids were recorded. Thomas & Sons of Leicester received the active award on 19 June 2026. The contract was signed on 19 June 2026 for £733,000. The procurement was described as outside the scope of the relevant directive and covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The tender records one lot, although that lot is marked cancelled; the award linked to it remains active. No contract delivery period or end date is stated in the procurement outcome.

This award demonstrates a substantial requirement from Nottingham College for specialist refurbishment of teaching premises, including the creation or relocation of a Hair and Beauty Salon. A credible future competitor would need the capability to manage building-improvement works in an occupied or operational education setting, coordinate multiple trades, and deliver safe, functional spaces suitable for practical vocational teaching. Experience adapting commercial or educational interiors for specialist facilities would be relevant, particularly where installations must support salon-based learning and wider teaching activity. The evaluation shows that quality carried significant weight alongside price, so suppliers would need to evidence reliable delivery, sound project management, technical competence and relevant completed work rather than compete on cost alone. Access to the Pagabo DPS route would also be important for comparable requirements.
