Huntersdale Refurbishment

Tender description

The proposed works to the Huntersdale Ground Floor are to be awarded by direct award without competition as a below Works threshold procurement. The refurbishment Works are of low value, tightly defined, and required to be completed by 28 August to ensure operational readiness for the start of the academic year and to support wider estate planning and decant arrangements. Undertaking a competitive process would be disproportionate to the scale and risk of the requirement and would introduce avoidable delay and delivery risk. The selected supplier has proven capability, immediate availability, and prior knowledge of the building, enabling mobilisation and completion within the required timeframe. Value for money is demonstrated through scope control, benchmarking against comparable works, reduced mobilisation costs, and avoidance of additional expense associated with asset deterioration or alternative accommodation. ## Contract award
