Summary of the contracting process

The University of Worcester commissioned replacement doors for St Johns Halls. The works involved removing the existing timber doors and installing replacements to create more secure spaces. The requirement is door installation and replacement work for student accommodation, rather than a general building project. Delivery was in Worcester, at the University’s St Johns Halls. The contract was awarded to AMB Glass & Malvern Windows Limited, a Malvern-based supplier. The scope is focused on improving security through replacement doors; no wider refurbishment work is described.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The University used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, and awarded the single lot to AMB Glass & Malvern Windows Limited. The award was made on 1 July 2026, when the contract was also signed. The contract period ran from 1 July to 31 July 2026. Its value was £28,183.67 excluding VAT (£33,820.40 including VAT). The stated evaluation basis and selection criteria are not detailed in the published process information.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for secure replacement doors in university halls of residence, delivered as a short, focused works contract. Suppliers competing for similar work at the University of Worcester would need to show they can remove existing timber doors and install suitable replacements while addressing the security needs of student accommodation. Relevant experience in door installation and replacement, practical delivery capability for a concentrated programme of works, and the ability to serve Worcester would help establish credibility. The selected supplier is a small or medium-sized business, showing that this scale of requirement was delivered by an SME. The procurement route was a direct award without competition, so this award does not demonstrate evaluation criteria or a competitive tender model.
