Elvas: 5.7 million euro works at the College of Biosciences receive no bids for the second time

Rádio Portalegre15 September 2026 at 15:20

The second international public tender for the requalification and expansion of the College of Biosciences in Elvas, with a planned investment of 5.7 million euros, again received no bids. This is the second time the tender procedure has ended without any interested parties.

The information was provided by the rector of the Polytechnic University of Portalegre, Luís Loures, who revealed the status of the tender that aimed to carry out the requalification and expansion works at the school.

The planned investment for this intervention is 5.7 million euros, representing a project of considerable magnitude for the higher education institution located in Elvas.

The lack of interest in the international public tender now raises questions about the future of the requalification of the College of Biosciences, which sees its modernization project postponed for the second time.

Why this matters

The academic community and students of the College of Biosciences in Elvas see the modernization of facilities postponed again, at a time when the institution is seeking to expand its capabilities. The lack of interest from construction companies in the tender may indicate difficulties in the construction sector or unattractive conditions, raising concerns about the viability of completing this strategic investment for the Alentejo region.
