Summary of the contracting process

New College Swindon is seeking electrical maintenance services across its college estate. The work covers planned maintenance, statutory testing, reactive repairs and associated electrical works, including electrical building installation repair and maintenance. The buyer is New College Swindon, based at Queens Drive Campus in Swindon. The delivery location is identified by the college’s Swindon postcode, so suppliers should be equipped to service the college estate there. This is a services requirement, rather than a supply of electrical equipment alone, and combines scheduled compliance work with responsive repair and related electrical tasks. The published scope is stated at a high level, with the detailed requirements forming part of the tender documents.

The buyer invited tenders through an open procedure. The tender submission deadline was 19 November 2026 at 10:00 UTC. The contract period is 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2030, for a fixed four-year term. The estimated contract value is £400,000. The procurement is presented as a single opportunity; no separate lots are described. The buyer’s published description says the tender documents contain the full requirements. No evaluation criteria are set out in the available procurement details, so the basis on which bids are compared cannot be summarised here. Suppliers should use the tender documentation for the detailed scope and requirements before deciding whether to bid.

This requirement may suit small and medium-sized electrical contractors able to support a college estate over a sustained term. The work calls for capability across planned electrical maintenance, statutory testing, reactive fault response and associated electrical works, rather than a narrow installation-only service. Suppliers should be equipped to organise scheduled inspection and maintenance alongside responsive repair work at the Swindon campus, and to deliver the full combination of services across the estate. The requirement’s four-year duration implies a need for dependable service capacity and continuity. Relevant experience maintaining electrical building installations and undertaking statutory testing would align closely with the stated scope. No specific accreditations, staffing levels, technical qualifications or prior contract thresholds are described in the published details, so businesses should check the tender documents for any additional participation requirements.
