## Summary

The University of Bristol is currently inviting tenders for a Mechanical Works Framework, aimed at delivering a wide range of mechanical service works including repairs, maintenance, refurbishments, and installations within the university estate. This framework comprises four lots, with Lot 2 valued between £5,000 and £39,999, Lot 3 between £40,000 and £200,000, and Lot 4 between £200,000 and £1,000,000, all values excluding VAT. The active tender is part of an open procurement method, and bids are expected to be submitted electronically or in writing by 3rd March 2022. The procurement process will be managed under a framework agreement, and each lot has a contract period of 720 days with potential extensions for up to two additional years.

This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses engaged in construction and engineering services, particularly those specialising in mechanical works. Companies capable of handling emergency and planned mechanical tasks, as well as those with experience in large-scale refurbishment projects, would be well-suited to compete. The structure of the tender allows for multiple lot applications, giving businesses the chance to maximise their participation across different project values, which can be particularly advantageous for small to medium enterprises looking to expand their portfolio in the higher education sector.
