Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, facilitated by Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council, involves the award for the repair and service of gas analysers and related equipment. This contract focuses on maintaining the functionality and warranty of approximately 100 Kane Flue gas analysers and CO detectors, among other pieces of equipment. The service includes annual calibration and repairs during the warranty period with additional costs post-warranty. The procurement falls under the industry category of repair and maintenance services of building installations, specifically targeting gas-detection and analysis equipment. The contracting period spans from 1st March 2026 to 28th February 2028. The procurement method was an open procedure, ensuring transparency and wide competition, with the award designated as complete on 19th February 2026.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in precision calibration and maintenance of gas-detection and analysis equipment. Companies particularly proficient in handling Kane gas analysers and those equipped to provide bespoke repair services will find this contract promising. As the tender involves servicing equipment internationally, firms with a proven track record in managing logistics and providing services across various regions, including the British Overseas Territories and Europe, would be well-suited to compete. Additionally, with emphasis on fixed pricing and lengthy contract periods, businesses that can efficiently manage costs and offer reliable service quality stand to grow significantly under this contract.

Notice Title

Repair and Service of Gas Analysers - AWARD

Notice Description

Pricing is required for our Kane Flue gas analysers, CO detectors and gas leak detectors. This is for a fixed price calibration and service cost per annum to include repairs and replacement of parts (excluding wilful damage which will be priced on application) during Kane's warranty period. An annual calibration cost is also required once the warranty period with the purchase of the analyser has expired. SMBC currently has approximately 100 pieces of Kane kit in total that require an annual service / calibration, although numbers cannot be guaranteed. It is required to maintain the warranty on the Kane analysers; these will need to be serviced at KANE International. As above, in addition to the analysers we have additional equipment that requires calibration on an annual basis which we will need costs for.
