When this comes round again

University of Worcester has published 9 Construction notices, about every 4 months. On that rhythm the next one is expected around December 2026.

9% of University of Worcester’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →

The brief

The University of Worcester is seeking to develop an Outdoor Covered Cricket Facility at its Severn Campus.

The development shall be in accordance with the ECB’s guidance Covered Outdoor Cricket Facilities - Developing Your Project and Covered Outdoor Cricket Facilities - Design Guide v1.1.

The key elements of the University’s proposal are:- • 10 lanes. • Provide opportunities for two indoor matches to be played concurrently. • A facility that is 46m long and 52m wide • Areas between the game zones to be greater than the minimum (hence the wider facility) to allow for improved spectator experience and for wheelchairs to pass • Lane width – Elite level at 4m • Orientation as close to North South as possible – with the bowler coming from the northern end. • Location on the site to be in the southern part of the site. • Storage for bowling machines to be within the covered outdoor facility with suitable protection against frost and damp at the bowlers’ end • Storage, in the form of open units, for players’ bags and equipment at the bowlers’ end outside of the playing area. • Covered facility to be surrounded by anti-climb fencing (same height as that surrounding the University’s all weather pitches) with access gates on the northern and eastern boundaries (exact details tbc) • Soft and hard landscaping to be provided to the perimeter A full scope of services for the appointed contractor will be developed and will be issued as part of the procurement process.

It is envisaged the contractor will be appointed on a 2 Stage JCT Design and Build Contract.

The University is looking to run a competitive flexible process commencing with a Preliminary Market Engagement Stage which will help to guide the next stages of the process.
