## Summary

Leeds College of Building is seeking a principal contractor to design, manage and deliver refurbishment works to the newly named CTEC Building on Byron Street, Leeds. The requirement covers construction and refurbishment of a college building, including the associated overhaul and improvement works. The contractor will be responsible for coordinating the design, construction management and delivery of the works as a single principal contractor. This is a public-sector construction opportunity for firms able to undertake refurbishment projects in an educational setting and manage delivery at the college’s Leeds site. The work is classified as construction and refurbishment of school, college and technical college buildings, including overhaul and refurbishment work.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open competitive flexible procedure. Candidates must first express interest and submit a Procurement Specific Questionnaire through MultiQuote. The PSQ deadline is 12 noon on 21 September 2026; enquiries close at 12 noon on 14 September 2026. The published tender period also records 21 September 2026 at 5pm as its end time. Stage 1 tender issue is scheduled for 28 September 2026, with the Stage 1 tender deadline at 12 noon on 26 October 2026. The estimated value is £14,000,000 excluding VAT, or £16,800,000 including VAT. Quality accounts for 40% and cost for 60%. The contract is scheduled for 1 March 2027 to 31 March 2028, with one possible 12-month extension to 31 March 2029.

This opportunity suits principal contractors with the capacity to lead a substantial refurbishment project from design through construction, management and completion. Relevant experience in construction or refurbishment of school, college or technical college buildings will be important, particularly experience coordinating multidisciplinary design and site delivery in an operational or educational environment. Applicants must provide evidence of business quality standards, relevant accreditations and comparable experience as part of the Procurement Specific Questionnaire. The requirement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community and social enterprises, so capable smaller firms may compete directly or consider forming a delivery team. Firms should be prepared to demonstrate both economic standing and technical competence, and ensure all submitted information is accurate.
