## Summary

The University of Lincoln appointed a contractor to refurbish its St Marks building and convert it into a dental practice. The project forms part of the Lincolnshire Institute of Dental and Oral Health initiative. The main work is building refurbishment, with the building’s change of use to dental facilities as the intended outcome. Delivery is in Lincoln, in the East Midlands. This is a construction project for a university rather than a supply of dental equipment or provision of clinical services; businesses should therefore have relevant building refurbishment and conversion capability.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Lindum Group Limited on 1 July 2026. The awarded contract value is £2,080,000. The contract period runs from 2 September 2026 to 16 April 2027, with the programme described as approximately seven months. The University used a selective call-off from the SCAPE Built Environment Framework, Lot 4. The stated tender deadline was 1 July 2026. The available procurement details do not set out an evaluation breakdown or specific eligibility requirements; the recorded suitability information indicates the opportunity was not suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award shows that the University of Lincoln has a substantial requirement for building contractors able to refurbish an existing university property and convert it for dental-practice use. A credible competitor for this same requirement would need the capacity to deliver a multi-month construction programme and experience coordinating refurbishment with a change of use in a healthcare setting. The selected contractor was a large business, and the procurement was routed through a built-environment framework, so relevant framework access and the resources to perform a sizeable works contract are important commercial considerations. The project is specifically tied to the University’s dental and oral health initiative; contractors with experience delivering comparable facilities conversions would be better placed to meet the buyer’s needs when this requirement returns to market.
