## Summary

The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency is conducting a tender for the refurbishment of cold rooms, titled "Cold Rooms Refurbishment," located in South Mimms, Hertfordshire. The project aims to upgrade 23 cold rooms over a two-year period to ensure they maintain the appropriate temperature and operate with energy efficiency. The procurement is currently at the award stage, with the contract period commencing on 1st July 2017 and concluding on 31st January 2020. The total value of the contract is £800,000, and the tender period ended on 17th February 2017.

This refurbishment project presents a significant opportunity for construction and engineering firms, particularly those specialising in works related to temperature-controlled environments. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, given the suitability identified for them in this tender. Businesses that can deliver high-quality insulation and reliable refrigeration services, while minimising disruption to existing operations, will be well-positioned to compete for this contract.

## Notice

The National Institute of Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC) is a centre of the Medicines and Healthcare Product Regulatory Agency (MHRA). NIBSC is based at South Mimms in Hertfordshire. We have 23 coldrooms on site. We are looking for a rolling programme of refurbishment over 2 years. Cold Rooms are fundamental in storing and keeping samples at the correct temperature, the project must deliver a cold room that can maintain the temperature within defined parameters, and the refrigeration system must give reliable service after install. The Insulation must be to the best industry standard available without allowing condensation within the cold room, and energy savings must be achieved through all of the above. Enough time must be allowed to achieve an upgraded cold room, however consideration should be given to the inconvenience of affected users, and how this can be mitigated.
