UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of Salford is procuring refurbishment works for room 819 in the Maxwell Building in Salford. The project involves delivering a redesigned space intended to showcase accessibility options, with a range of technologies and access solutions incorporated into the room. This is a building refurbishment requirement rather than a supply-only or consultancy opportunity, and is categorised as refurbishment work (CPV 45453100). The work will be delivered at the University’s Maxwell Building in Salford. Contractors with relevant experience in commercial, institutional or educational refurbishment, particularly projects involving accessible environments, specialist access solutions and integrated technologies, are likely to find the scope relevant.

The procurement has reached the tender stage: the University invited offers through an open, below-threshold competition. Questions could be submitted until 7 September 2026 at 23:59:59, and tender submissions were due by 18 September 2026 at 12:00. Bids are submitted electronically through the University’s InTend portal. The contract period is from 5 October 2026 to 5 January 2027. The estimated value is £75,000 excluding VAT, or £90,000 including VAT. There is one lot. Evaluation is based on commercial considerations weighted at 40% and technical considerations weighted at 60%; the technical assessment comprises environment at 20% and contract management at 40%.

This opportunity suits refurbishment and fit-out contractors able to manage a focused works package within an occupied or operational university environment, subject to the project requirements. Relevant suppliers should be able to deliver room refurbishment, coordinate building trades and install or integrate technologies and access solutions that demonstrate practical accessibility options. The evaluation gives substantial emphasis to technical delivery, including environmental performance and contract management, so bidders should be prepared to evidence robust project controls, communication, programme management and environmental practices. The procurement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it potentially relevant to specialist local contractors and established SMEs with suitable refurbishment experience.
