Summary of the contracting process

The Learning in Harmony Multi Academy Trust (LiHT), located in London and Southend, has completed a procurement process for a contract titled "Planned and Preventative Maintenance." This procurement, classified under building and facilities management services, involves the maintenance of a variety of traditional and modern school buildings across 14 schools, including future facilities such as a SEND school planned for completion by September 2026. The tender process adhered to a restricted procedure, ensuring only selected candidates could bid, and culminated with Bellrock Property and Facilities Management Limited being awarded the contract. The contract, active from 4 November 2025, will initially run for three years with options for two additional one-year extensions. The procurement process was conducted under legislation CELEX 32014L0024 and followed a selective procurement method.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in building and facilities management services, particularly those with experience in educational environments. SMEs may find promising opportunities here, as demonstrated by an earlier stage where one of the bids came from an SME. The structured nature of the tender, focusing on both quality and price criteria, allows for businesses of varying sizes to showcase their strengths in delivering comprehensive maintenance solutions. With ongoing demand for high-standard maintenance across diverse educational facilities, companies that can provide reliable and innovative maintenance services will find a competitive advantage. Additionally, the opportunity for contract extension beyond the initial term offers potential for long-term collaboration and financial growth.
