This is a contract result notice, not an open opportunity. Details from the official award data.

Nottingham Trent University is seeking to appoint a maximum of three Contractors who will form a Framework that will provide construction services to the University across all campuses as and when required.

The University shall conduct further competitions (inviting all three appointed contractors to bid) to award projects.

The University reserves the right to award projects directly to one of the contractors for reasons of genuine urgency/emergency.

The Contractors shall work in Partnership with NTU internal Estates teams to fulfil projects that NTU Construction Services are unable to undertake themselves.

Project sizes shall vary between £200,000 and £1,800,000 gross.

The University reserves the right to put projects above this value out to tender to the open market to ensure value for money.

Works shall mainly be refurbishment and modernisation projects, alterations, new build works and maintenance of typical university buildings.

This will include but not be limited to laboratories, small and complex lecture theatres, libraries, café and commercial kitchens, offices (individual and open plan), public areas, meeting rooms, conference rooms, accommodation, plant areas, etc.

Buildings will be of varying age/condition, including listed/heritage type buildings.

The work will be in the form of individual projects, with details being provided via a scope of works, usually with proposed drawings and where available design guides and standard specification.

Depending on the scheme and University involved, designs may be provided by the University, or the Contractor will be asked to produce them.

Appointed Contractors must therefore be able to provide a design service and be willing to take on design responsibility and have appropriate levels of professional indemnity insurances for the call-off contract in question.
