UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of Bedfordshire is procuring ground-floor toilet refurbishment works at its Luton Campus. The requirement covers water plumbing work and associated plumbing consultancy services, for the refurbishment of the ground-floor toilet facilities. This is a works contract managed by the university, with delivery taking place at the Luton Campus in Luton. Suppliers should therefore be able to provide plumbing refurbishment services and any consultancy needed to support the plumbing element of the works. The procurement is focused on a defined campus refurbishment project rather than a broader facilities-management or ongoing maintenance service. Businesses with relevant commercial plumbing, building refurbishment or plumbing consultancy capability may find the scope relevant, particularly those able to deliver work in Luton.

The process has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Enquiries had to be submitted by 17 August 2026 at 12:00, and offers by 21 August 2026 at 12:00. The contract period is 14 September 2026 to 21 October 2026. The estimated procurement value is £38,333.33 excluding VAT and £46,000 gross. The single lot is published with a value of AED 38,333.33. Evaluation is based on price, weighted at 60%, and quality, weighted at 40%. Electronic submission is allowed. The tender uses the University of Bedfordshire’s online procurement portal for submissions. The opportunity is below the applicable threshold and is being run as an open competition rather than a restricted or direct award procedure.

This opportunity suits suppliers able to undertake ground-floor toilet refurbishment and deliver water plumbing work, supported where required by plumbing consultancy. Relevant businesses are likely to include commercial plumbing contractors, refurbishment specialists with strong plumbing capability, and plumbing consultancies that can support the works. The requirement is suitable for firms comfortable delivering a short, defined project at a university campus in Luton, rather than suppliers seeking a long-term service arrangement. A capable bidder should be able to coordinate plumbing-related refurbishment activity and demonstrate quality in its proposed approach, since quality accounts for 40% of evaluation alongside price. The work may also suit smaller regional contractors with the capacity to complete a focused campus project within the specified contract period.
