## Summary

The University of Exeter, a public undertaking, has initiated a procurement process for the role of SKA Support under the tender ID PO/2026/1104/VW. This involves providing 'uncertified' SKA assessments for projects with construction values below £1 million. The procurement falls within the services category with a focus on architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services, specifically located in the UKK43 region of the United Kingdom. The current stage of this open and competitive procurement is the tender phase, which began on the 4th of March, 2026, with a submission deadline set for the 11th of March, 2026. The value of the tender is approximately £41,665.83, not exceeding the threshold for broader competitions.

This tender creates ample opportunities for businesses, particularly those with small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to contribute to construction and refurbishment projects of varied scales. Companies with expertise in technical competence, methodological understanding, and experience in quality assessment will find this opportunity especially beneficial. As the assessment services are crucial in the early project stages, firms that can meet the demand for quality delivery at competitive prices, while demonstrating capacity and efficient working arrangements, will have a strong chance of successfully competing for this contract. This procurement method invites broader competition, offering a valuable platform for businesses looking to expand their reach within the public sector construction industry.
