## Summary

The procurement process involves Brunel University, which is seeking contractors for the refurbishment of the Wilfred Brown Building located in Uxbridge, Middlesex.

The tender is currently in the active stage, with a tender period that closed on 12 October 2015, and the contract is set to commence on 24 November 2015, concluding by 2 September 2016.
