Scotland’s Rural College (SRUC) is a leading provider of education, research and consultancy supporting Scotland’s land-based and natural economy. Its estate comprises a diverse range of campuses, farms, research centres, veterinary facilities and consultancy hubs, each with distinct operational and environmental requirements.
SRUC operates across five principal campuses located in Aberdeen, Barony, Elmwood, Edinburgh (King’s Buildings) and Oatridge, alongside a wider network of research farms, Veterinary Disease Surveillance Centres (DSCs) and Farm and Rural Business Services (FRBS) locations. Activities across these sites include agriculture, veterinary nursing, horticulture, environmental management, forestry and food production.
Maintaining safe, hygienic and well-presented environments is critical to supporting SRUC’s operations, regulatory compliance and the experience of students, staff and visitors. The Specification sets out the requirements for the provision of cleaning and associated services across the SRUC estate.
