## Summary

The University of Dundee is procuring architectural consultancy services for its Estates and Campus Services Department. The appointed architect will provide professional architectural, design and contract administration services for the university’s capital, refurbishment and maintenance projects. The work is intended to support value for money, compliance with statutory and procurement requirements, and the university’s strategic estates objectives. The requirement covers construction projects requiring selective input from external consultants, including architectural services and associated support. This is a services contract, classified as construction consultancy services. Delivery will take place in Dundee, Scotland, across the university’s estates. The work is relevant to architectural practices and multidisciplinary construction consultants able to support projects from design through contract administration and delivery.

The procurement has reached tender: the University of Dundee invited offers through an open procedure, with responses submitted electronically. The tender closing deadline is 30 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract is planned to run for 1,800 days, or approximately five years. Its estimated value is £1,000,000. Bids must remain valid until 26 March 2027 at 23:59:59 UTC. The buyer scheduled bid opening for 30 October 2026 at 13:00 UTC. Award decisions will assess quality at 40% and price at 60%. Variant bids are not allowed. A document participation fee applies. English is the required submission language, and electronic ordering and payment will be used, with electronic invoicing allowed.

This opportunity suits established architectural practices and construction consultancy firms with the professional capability to support a range of university capital, refurbishment and maintenance projects. Tenderers must demonstrate sufficient resources, including access to RIBA-qualified architects, and must provide details of ISO quality accreditations and appropriate insurance cover. The buyer requires the names and qualifications of staff who will be assigned to the work, so suppliers should have an identifiable, suitably qualified delivery team. Relevant experience should include architectural design, associated consultancy, contract administration and working within statutory and public procurement requirements. Firms able to manage varied estates projects while maintaining quality, compliance and value-for-money outcomes are best placed to compete.
