Summary of the contracting process

Cardiff University is seeking a single supplier for a framework covering surveys and remedial works to roof and internal access equipment across its academic and residential estate in Cardiff. The work includes inspecting internal and external access equipment for structural integrity and compliance, reporting and rating the assets, and setting out the remedial work needed, with associated costings and timeframes. The procurement is primarily works, with a related survey and service element. It combines structural engineering consultancy with installation or repair of access and safety equipment. Suppliers should be able to assess a varied estate of access equipment and provide both technical findings and practical remedial proposals.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition to establish a one-supplier framework. The enquiry deadline was 13 November 2026 at 00:00, and the submission deadline was 26 November 2026 at 00:00. The framework is scheduled to run from 1 March 2027 to 28 February 2030, with a stated maximum extent to 28 February 2031 and a renewal option described as one two-month extension. The estimated value is £640,000 including VAT. There is one lot, and the award assessment weights price at 60%, quality at 30% and responsible procurement at 10%. Participation and selection requirements are set out in the invitation-to-tender documents.

This opportunity suits suppliers able to combine structural inspection and compliance assessment with remedial construction or installation work. The work calls for the capacity to survey access equipment across both academic and residential buildings, produce asset ratings and clear reports, and develop costed remedial scopes with delivery timeframes. The framework is intended to cover a substantial university estate, so suppliers need the operational capability to assess a range of internal and external equipment and undertake follow-on works. Cardiff University identifies the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses. The first year includes a commitment to surveys and remedial works, dependent on budget.
