Details

University Locks is a 651-bed university-managed hall of residence, which provides self-clean accommodation to Birmingham City University students for 41-51 weeks. In addition, the accommodation is let to summer schools and conferences during July and August. This provides a short window to deep clean the accommodation in readiness for new students arriving in September. It is therefore essential that all cleaning is carried out to the highest standard, first and every time, to the proposed schedules. The majority of the rooms are ensuite in cluster flats of mainly 6-8 beds sharing a kitchen/dining/lounge area, with a small number of non-ensuite 2-bed flats. The cleaning schedules provided are indicative of the anticipated cleaning required during the summer and should be used as a basis for the completion of the financial schedule. As the tender process is completed so far in advance of the summer it is to be expected that the actual requirements will vary from those currently indicated in the cleaning schedules. This is for a 3-year term, with the option to extend for 2 years in yearly increments. There is a site visit on Tuesday 13th October between 10am and 12pm.

Documents

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this education & training opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
