In plain English

The University of Exeter wants a contractor to clean, inspect, certify and report on the extraction ductwork and ventilation systems serving its catering kitchens. The work must keep these systems safe, clean and compliant across its estate, with an estimated value of £270,000.

What the buyer wants

• Inspect, clean and certify catering extract ductwork and ventilation systems • Deliver the work in line with all relevant legislation, the TR19 requirements and industry best practice • Provide written reporting and show the technical expertise, resources and management capability to run the service across a diverse, operationally complex estate

Requirements

What could rule a small business out (our reading of the notice, written with AI): The notice asks for technical expertise, resources, management capability and a continuous improvement approach across a large and complex estate, and at around £270,000 this may favour established firms with sizeable teams over small operators, although the notice does not set a specific minimum size or turnover.
