The University of Edinburgh invites competitive tenders for the design and supply of kitchen furniture, sinks, taps, work surfaces and niche panelling.
The University has a population of over 29 000 students. Accommodation Services provides accommodation for approximately a fifth of these students in a variety of different types of accommodation, with catered accommodation being provided at Pollock Halls of Residence. The remaining accommodation is self-catered in either flats or halls around the city and at Easter Bush. The self- catered accommodation has fitted kitchens in it and the catered accommodation has pantries which also have kitchen furniture.
Details of campus maps detailing all areas where kitchen furniture may be required to be delivered are available online at http://www.ed.ac.uk/maps/ (Central Area, Kings Buildings, Little France, Western General, Easter Bush).

The successful suppliers must be suitably accredited and experienced using best practice and overall value for money principles to design kitchens that are built to last. They must be willing to play an active and effective role as a partner in understanding the needs and requirements of a large and complex organisation and will be expected to support the University by being able to install kitchens in occupied properties safely and with minimal disruption to tenants.
The successful suppliers will be expected to be conversant with current HMO Guidelines and all kitchen designs will be expected to meet these regulations. They will also be expected to be knowledgeable in new concepts of kitchen furniture structure and design with particular emphasis on longevity and sustainability.
The successful suppliers will be expected to support the University by being able to provide an installation service for the kitchens should the University require it. This service may be in occupied properties where safety and minimal disruption to tenants is paramount.
Anticipated Framework start date: 1.4.2014
Framework time period: 1.4.2014 for a two year period with an option to extend for a further 2 years – so 2 + 1 + 1.
Framework Agreement and Lots: This framework agreement will be split between two lots. (further details are given below on Lots)
This procurement will follow a restricted process with a total of 6 suppliers being forwarded to the ITT stage for both lots.
The total spend on works covered by this framework is typically in the range of 250 000 GBP – 300 000 GBP per annum. Over the course of the 4 years of the framework this spend is likely to be split fairly evenly between the two lots (although there may be fluctuations in demand from one year to the next in the different lot areas). There will be no guarantee or commitment by the University of Edinburgh to the total amount of money to be spent via this framework.
The framework will run from 1.4.2014 for 2 years initially with an option to extend for up to a further 2 years subject to satisfactory performance.
This framework agreement will be divided into two lots dependant on the use of the kitchens –:
Lot 1 – Kitchens/ Pantrys in Communal Halls of Residence
Lot 2 – Kitchens for flatted Accommodation
The Framework Agreement will be awarded in 2 separate lots and suppliers will be asked to tender separately for each lot. The University will be looking to appoint one different supplier to each lot. The successful suppliers will not be allocated more than one LOT but will be asked to act on a ‘reserve’ basis to each other in the event that one of the suppliers is unable to fulfil their contractual obligations for any reason.
Suppliers will be able to bid for one or both lots. In the event that one supplier is successful in both lots then the University reserves the right to choose which lot to allocate to the successful supplier.
A price /quality ratio (PQR) for this tender will be set at 60% quality / 40% price.
In addition to the PQR ratio above it will be a mandatory requirement for all kitchens to carry a 25 year warranty.
In addition to the PQR a quality threshold may also be set for some evaluation questions where quality of products are considered to be a key factor in the success of this framework agreement.
The appointed suppliers will provide a full range of kitchen design and supply across the University estate. This will include, but not be limited to:-
A) Kitchen design and space planning – Supplier must attend on site, measure and produce drawings for installation, complying with HMO and H&S regulations and including design of appropriate electrics, ventilation and plumbing.
B) Supply of required furniture
C) Delivery to site – Many sites have no lifts and delivery must be on an agreed convenient date as there are no storage facilities. This may require multiple deliveries.
D) The University is intending to utilise an existing small works framework agreement for installation, however, in the event that we are unable to utilise the existing agreement (for example the small works framework is not renewed after 2 years), suppliers must be able to provide an installation service which the University can utilise should they need to. If the University elects to use the successful supplier (because we are no longer able to utilise the small works framework) for installation work then it is a mandatory requirement for all suppliers who are providing the installation to be Construction Line and CHAS registered and to have CSCS cards or equivalent.
All work must be carried out in line with UK legislation, Approved Codes of Practice and HSE Guidance as well as normally accepted good practice and following the University’s procedures and policies.
