In plain English
University of Greenwich is setting up a Dynamic Purchasing System (a pre-approved supplier list) to buy minor building and maintenance works worth £1–2M per project. They want contractors ready to handle everything from painting and plumbing to roofing and electrical work on short notice.
What the buyer wants
• Be pre-approved and on their supplier list so you can bid when they call off individual projects • Provide quotes quickly for minor works projects (typically £1–2M each) • Cover one or more of their listed work types: building, electrical, plumbing, roofing, glazing, painting, heating systems, demolition, asbestos removal, civil engineering, or related services
Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
You will struggle if you cannot prove experience on university or large institutional projects worth at least £500k+, or if you lack the right insurance, Health & Safety credentials, and established track record. Most successful bidders are mid-size firms or consortia, not sole traders.
How to bid
This is a Dynamic Purchasing System: an open list of approved suppliers. You can apply to join at any time while it runs, and once accepted you can bid for the individual contracts the buyer runs through it.
