## Summary

The procurement process for the "855 - Campus Wayfinding" project initiated by Aston University involves the creation and installation of new wayfinding signs on the Aston campus in Birmingham, United Kingdom. The project falls under the goods category and has a contract value of £60,000 GBP. The tender, following an open procurement method, is currently active with a tender period closing on 7th August 2023 and a planned contract period starting on 1st September 2023 and ending on 8th January 2024.

This tender opportunity presents a chance for businesses specialising in signage, sign posts, and related items to engage with Aston University on a project that aims to improve navigation around the campus. Companies with expertise in design, production, and installation of directional signs are well-suited to compete for this contract. For businesses looking to expand in the United Kingdom, particularly in the Midlands region, this project offers a specific growth opportunity in the public procurement sector.

## Notice

Over the years navigation has been a challenge for students, visitors and site staff around the campus. Various signposts have been established to direct visitors to destinations and buildings, and sometimes the result is not always as intended. Over time these signs have quickly become outdated and discoloured and require replacing. Therefore, Aston University require new wayfinding signs with fresher designs that incorporate Aston's recent re- branding colours and directional signage to include buildings which are shown on the Aston Campus Map.
