## Summary

The University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI) has recently completed a procurement process under the contract titled "Hotel Services" for facilities management services. This contract was open to tenders through an open procedure with the CPV classification 79993100. The services are intended for four student residences located in Inverness, Dornoch, Elgin, and Fort William. The procurement was in the Award stage as of 15 October 2025, with a value of £2,430,310.75 awarded to Kingdom Services Group Limited. The initial term is set to commence in November 2025 and cover a period of 3 years, with potential extensions. The procurement process covered comprehensive duties such as security, emergency response, and facilities management, with key quality criteria including expertise, service delivery, and risk management.

This tender presents ample opportunities for growth, especially for businesses specializing in comprehensive facilities management and security services. Companies with a focus on delivering high-quality management and security solutions at residential locations, and possessing a robust track record, are particularly well-positioned to benefit from tenders like this. The contract supports UHI’s operational needs across multiple locations in Scotland, thus offering considerable potential for regional business expansion.
