Description

Buckinghamshire New University ("University") has been working with Circuit Laundrette Services Ltd and this has been based on an income share concession arrangement. The latest contract is expiring on 30th September 2025 therefore a new contract is required. This renewal presents an opportunity to enhance service delivery and infrastructure while maintaining continuity for both staff and residents. The University will now offer eligible service user students a number of free washes and dry services per term, (payable by the University), so this will no longer be a concession contract. This new service contract will include the supply, installation and maintenance of all laundry equipment including the operation of payment facilities. The renewal will ensure continuity of services for the students including a commitment by the Supplier to replace all the washing and drying machines with brand new equipment and the refurbishment of the laundry rooms on all sites.

This decision is based on the grounds of technical and economic impracticality of switching suppliers within the required timeframe and the absence of a suitable\ncompetitive alternative that delivers equivalent value for money and continuity.\nThis renewal will ensure continuity of services to students with the Supplier\u0027s proven support channels and includes the replacement of all washer and dryer equipment with brand new machines which will significantly improve the student experience.\nThese upgrades are expected to reduce maintenance issues, improve energy efficiency,\nand modernise the overall look and functionality of the facilities.\nThe value is approximate and has included a provision for any potential new accommodation sites the University may procure. It also isn\u0027t known exactly how many students will take up the offer of the free washes per term therefore an approximate\ncontract spend has been provided.",
