UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of Bradford commissioned refurbishment of the roof covering at its Student Central Building in Bradford. The works covered re-roofing Roof Areas 1, 1A and 2, including replacement of the existing roofing system. The scope also included associated alterations, coordination and reinstatement of rooftop mechanical and electrical plant, building services, access systems and ancillary components. The completed works were intended to ensure the building met its design and performance requirements. This is a construction and specialist roofing requirement, including roof repair, maintenance and related special trade work. Delivery was at the University of Bradford’s City Campus in Bradford, making the opportunity relevant to contractors able to undertake commercial or institutional roofing works in this setting.

The procurement was a completed below-threshold limited competition for one lot. Three bids were received and two reached the final stage. The contract was awarded on 28 July 2026 to Future Roof Leeds Ltd. The award value is £656,235.04 excluding VAT, or £787,482.05 including VAT. The contract period runs from 11 August 2026 to 10 August 2027, with signature scheduled by 10 August 2026. The evaluation resulted in an active award, and the tender itself is complete. The successful supplier is a large roofing contractor. The process therefore provides a clear benchmark for the buyer’s route to market, the scale of a single Student Central roofing package and the type of competitive outcome achieved.

This procurement demonstrates demand from the University of Bradford for substantial, planned roofing refurbishment on a complex occupied-building estate. A credible future competitor would need proven capability in replacing commercial roofing systems and repairing or maintaining roof areas, together with the management capacity to coordinate alterations and reinstate rooftop mechanical and electrical plant, services, access systems and ancillary components. Experience of working to defined design and performance requirements would be important, as would the ability to manage interfaces between roofing, building services and access arrangements. The competition attracted three bids, with two progressing to the final stage, indicating that suppliers need a properly developed technical and commercial response. Roofing firms with institutional or commercial refurbishment experience would be best placed to compete when comparable work returns.
