Summary of the contracting process

The City of York Council has awarded a contract for the provision of Hard FM (Facilities Management) Services to eight key council buildings. This public procurement process, under the open procedure method, was competitively awarded to GEOFFREY ROBINSON LIMITED, a large company based in Billingham. The contract, valued at £1,250,000, commenced on 27th November 2025 and is set to run until 2nd November 2028, with the possibility of two additional 12-month extensions based on performance. The contract includes services in repair, maintenance, installation and building management across the identified locations in York (Region UKE21), within the services and associated works industry categories.

This tender offers significant opportunities for companies specialising in building and facilities management to expand their portfolio, particularly those capable of delivering high-quality services within the public sector. Although the contract was not awarded to a SME or VCSE, it highlights the demand for experienced providers in large-scale contracts and opens potential supply chain opportunities for smaller subcontractors specialising in specific areas of services. Businesses that can demonstrate expertise in efficient facilities management and adherence to high standards of quality and safety are well-positioned to compete for similar contracts in future procurements.
