Summary of the contracting process

London and South East University Group bought commercial removal and relocation services for its Canterbury and Medway campuses. The work covers moving goods and providing related storage and warehousing services. The supplier is expected to deliver a reliable, high-quality service supported by robust management and quality-control processes. The requirement is focused on the university’s campus operations in Canterbury and Medway, in Kent. This is a single service requirement rather than a multi-lot procurement, covering relocation and associated storage. It is intended for a provider able to manage commercial moves for institutional sites, rather than household removals alone.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to KELERBAY LIMITED on 7 October 2026. The award value is £150,000 excluding VAT (£180,000 including VAT). The contract runs from 26 October 2026 to 25 October 2027, with an option to extend to 25 October 2029. Any extension is at the university’s discretion and depends on excellent supplier performance. The procurement was described as below-threshold, with the method recorded as unknown. The process had one lot, marked complete. The award covers relocation services and storage and warehousing. The contract award followed an evaluation whose criteria are not described in the available procurement details.

This award demonstrates demand from London and South East University Group for commercial campus removals across Canterbury and Medway, with storage and warehousing forming part of the service. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to be a suitably qualified and experienced commercial removals provider, able to deliver reliable, high-quality moves across university campuses. The stated requirements also point to robust management and quality-control processes, as well as registered membership of the British Association of Removers (BAR). The contract is a focused service opportunity for suppliers with the operational capability to handle institutional relocation work and the associated storage needs. Strong delivery performance matters commercially: the university linked any extension of this contract to excellent supplier performance.
