The brief

Tenders are invited for the Huxley Insectary Works at the University of Keele.

This will cover the extension and refurbishment of the existing Insectary laboratory.

The works and services required are fully described in the Introduction Document in Section 2 of the ITT and the Tender Specification Documents which are attached as separate documents.

The estimated total value of the Contract for the Huxley Insectary Works is circa £1,000,000 excluding VAT.

The Huxley Insectary Works covering all of the works and services required to deliver the contract shall be completed by 21st January 2025.

The Contract will commence on 30th May 2024 and will run until the completion date of 21st January 2025 followed by a 12-month defects liability period.

Main reasons for decision not to subdivide contract into lots: Given the need for one main contractor to co-ordinate the delivery of the works and services required to deliver the project, the contract has not been subdivided into lots.

In order to assist Tenderers in preparing their tender submission, the University will be holding a collective site visit with all potential Tenderers on Thursday 18th April 2024 to allow Tenderers to see the working area in Huxley, the access arrangements to same, the contractors areas in the adjacent William Smith Building and Car Park F as well as a chance to review existing building services.

It is a mandatory requirement that all Tenderers attend the site visit.

Tenderers should note that the University is not in a position to offer any alternative dates.

The site visit is not part of the scoring assessment and is offered to Tenderers by way of informing their Tender responses only.

Further information on the site visit is provided in the Introduction Document in Section 2 of the ITT.

Tenderers are required to confirm details of attendees through the In-Tend procurement portal by no later than 12 noon on the 16th April 2024, providing the following information: Full Name of attendees Job Title of attendees Email address of attendees
