## Summary

Aston University has completed the procurement process for the "Main Building Roof Upgrade" project, with the award dated 23 February 2026. This project falls under the industry category of roof repair and maintenance work and is located in Birmingham, England. The procurement, funded through the Salix Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme, aimed to replace the university's aged and leaking flat roof using the Bauder roofing system, which guarantees long-term performance and warranty through Bauder-approved contractors. The procurement method was selective and conducted as a call-off from a framework agreement, specifically the LHC RS5 Roofing Systems & Associated Works Framework. The contract commenced on 23 February 2026 and is scheduled to end on 18 June 2026, with a total contract value of £518,333.03 excluding VAT.

The tender provided a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in roof repair and maintenance, particularly those approved as Bauder contractors. As the procurement process focused on quality assurance and sustainability, businesses with experience in delivering installations to specification, aligned with asset management objectives, were best suited to compete. CWG Group Ltd, a small and medium-sized enterprise, was awarded the contract, highlighting the project's suitability for SMEs eager to expand their market presence in public sector works. Businesses capable of complying with framework requirements, sustainability goals, and possessing a proven track record in high-performance installations would find such opportunities beneficial for growth.

## Notice

Aston University is undertaking a flat roof replacement project for its Main Building, funded through the Salix Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (Phase 4). The existing roof is aged, leaking, and no longer fit for purpose. This is a critical project because water ingress poses a significant risk to teaching spaces and laboratories located directly beneath the roof. To guarantee long-term performance and warranty protection, Aston University will specify a Bauder roofing system, which provides a 20-year insurance-backed warranty. This warranty is only valid if the system is installed by a Bauder-approved contractor. Therefore, the procurement process will focus on engaging contractors who are approved by Bauder and have a proven track record of delivering installations to specification. This requirement is essential for quality assurance, risk mitigation, and alignment with the University's sustainability and asset management objectives. This opportunity was delivered via a further competition issued to suppliers who expressed interest following an Expression of Interest (EOI) published through the LHC RS5 Roofing Systems & Associated Works Framework.
