## Summary

The procurement process led by Lancaster University sought a fit-out contractor to develop a multi-functional collaboration space for the School of Mathematical Sciences within the Charles Carter Building in Lancaster. The contract has been awarded to Overbury plc, following an open procurement procedure. The tender pertains to the refurbishment and construction work industry categories, with the contract period running from 3rd August 2026 to 14th December 2026. The award was officially completed on 22nd July 2026, and the associated documentation was published on 30th July 2026.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the construction sector, particularly those skilled in large-scale refurbishments and bespoke design projects. Business growth can be achieved by partnering with universities or public sector entities that regularly require infrastructure development. Although this particular contract has been awarded, similar opportunities may arise for companies with robust project management capabilities and experience in delivering educational institution projects. This is especially pertinent to larger organisations due to the project's scale, as the procurement suitability criteria do not favour small and medium enterprises or voluntary, community, and social enterprises.
