UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Royal Holloway and Bedford New College procured remediation and refurbishment works for its Chestnuts building. The project addresses widespread dry rot affecting existing timber floor structures after moisture became trapped in the building. The works include stripping out defective floor constructions and replacing them with new solid floor build-ups, including concrete slabs. The scope also covers associated finishes and refurbishment across lecture, teaching and circulation areas, together with enabling works, reinstatement, decoration, final testing and handover. This is a building refurbishment and remedial construction requirement, classified under refurbishment work. The work is for Royal Holloway and Bedford New College at its Chestnuts building, associated with the university in Egham.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. There was one completed lot. LST Partnership LLP was selected as the supplier, and the award is active. The contract was signed on 30 June 2026 and runs from 30 June 2026 to 17 August 2026. Its value is £88,696.50 excluding VAT and £106,435.80 including VAT. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The contracting process therefore records a completed award for the Chestnuts Building Remediation Works, with the selected supplier responsible for the single package of remedial, replacement-flooring, refurbishment, reinstatement and handover activities.

This procurement indicates demand for specialist building remediation and refurbishment in an occupied or previously affected university estate, particularly where timber floor structures have suffered dry rot and moisture damage. A credible future supplier would need to demonstrate experience diagnosing and resolving defects in existing buildings, stripping out failed floor construction, installing solid floor build-ups and concrete slabs, and coordinating associated finishes, decorations and reinstatement. The requirement also favours contractors able to manage enabling works, sequencing, testing, quality control and formal handover across lecture, teaching and circulation spaces. LST Partnership LLP is identified as an SME supplier, indicating that a focused small or medium-sized construction and refurbishment business can undertake this scale of university works.

The programme also includes enabling works, reinstatement, decorations, and final testing and handover
