## Summary

The University of Glasgow is procuring services to establish a framework agreement for room utilisation surveys. The appointed contractor will carry out surveys of rooms at the University’s estate, including the Gilmorehill campus in Glasgow, to support understanding and management of room use. The requirement is a specialist surveying and data-gathering service rather than construction or facilities maintenance. The specification includes room types, campus mapping, survey templates, stakeholder feedback and performance management materials. The framework is intended for survey work commissioned by the University during the delivery period. It is a single-supplier framework, so it suits organisations able to provide the complete room utilisation survey service and manage the associated reporting and stakeholder requirements.

The buyer invited offers through a tender using the open procedure. Responses were to be submitted electronically in English, with the tender deadline set for 22 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC; bids were scheduled to open at the same time. The framework covers an initial two-year contract period, with services planned from March 2027 to March 2029, and options for two further 12-month extensions. The procurement has one lot and uses a framework agreement with a maximum of one participant. Evaluation includes economic and financial selection requirements. Tenderers must provide specified insurance cover and at least two years of accounts showing minimum annual turnover of £160,000. The contract allows electronic ordering and payment, and electronic invoicing is permitted.

This opportunity is suited to a specialist surveying, workplace analytics, space-planning or facilities consultancy with experience of measuring and reporting how rooms and buildings are used. The successful supplier will need the people, systems and operational capacity to survey a university estate, work from defined room schedules and campus information, use the required survey templates, and provide reliable stakeholder feedback and performance reporting. Financial robustness is important: bidders need at least two years of accounts and annual turnover of £160,000. Required insurance includes product liability, public liability and employer’s liability cover of £5 million, plus professional indemnity cover of £1 million. Suppliers should also be prepared to propose community benefits, including training, employment, equality initiatives or SME and third-sector subcontracting opportunities.
