Summary of the contracting process

MSE Group is seeking a single supplier to provide planned preventive maintenance for dental chairs across three sites. The requirement covers one annual service for each unit, including labour, with the supplier also providing technician call-outs for 12 months after each annual service. Any breakdown repairs outside the annual service are chargeable at the standard labour rate, while required parts receive a 10% discount from standard rates for 12 months after the service. The opportunity is categorised as the supply of medical equipment and related products, although the practical requirement is dental-chair maintenance and repair. The identified buyer is MSE Group in Southend, England, and the service covers three locations, with one site associated with postcode SS2 6GE. The tender is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure. Suppliers were required to submit one quotation covering all three sites by 25 August 2026 at 12:00 BST. The contract period is from 26 August 2026 at 12:00 BST to 26 August 2026 at 23:59:59 BST. The requirement is for one annual service per dental-chair unit, with follow-on call-out and parts-discount arrangements lasting 12 months after each annual service. Breakdown repairs outside the annual service are chargeable at the standard labour rate. The published requirement calls for a single quotation for all three sites. It is a goods procurement, with no total estimated value stated. The tender information does not set out an award scoring basis.

This opportunity suits dental equipment maintenance specialists, medical engineering firms and service providers able to inspect, service and repair dental chairs across three sites. Suppliers should be able to provide planned preventive maintenance, supply appropriately skilled technicians and respond to breakdown call-outs during the 12-month post-service period. They will need capacity to coordinate a single service arrangement covering all units and locations, rather than quoting separately for individual sites. The commercial model requires clear labour-rate pricing for chargeable breakdown repairs and the ability to apply a 10% discount to parts for 12 months after each annual service. Small and medium-sized businesses are explicitly considered suitable, so the requirement may fit an established regional specialist or a larger provider with sufficient field-service coverage.
