Summary of the contracting process

Curo Places Limited, a sub-central government public authority based in Bath, United Kingdom, is conducting an open procurement process titled "Supply and Installation of Door Entry Fob Readers and Fobs". This tender falls under the Electrical Installation work category and involves the replacement of existing iButton wall readers in residential blocks. Approximately 336 wall mounted fob readers and 81 fob access handle sets are to be installed across 83 sites. Interested contractors are required to decommission the obsolete systems and introduce compatible replacements. This tender is at the active stage and submissions are expected by November 28, 2025, with the project set to start on February 27, 2026. The estimated contract value stands at £438,382, and all operations must comply with the latest legal framework as outlined in UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender offers significant opportunities for growth, especially for contractors with expertise in electronic installation and maintenance. Companies that specialise in security and access control systems will find this an attractive opportunity given its focus on modernising door entry systems using both Salto Space and MIFARE technologies. Due to the nature of the replacements and technological integration required, firms experienced in decommissioning outdated technologies and installing cutting-edge solutions stand to benefit greatly. Additionally, this project requires businesses to be registered on Curo's In-tend platform for documentation and submission purposes, which allows for a streamlined application process. Small to medium enterprises (SMEs) with the capability to deliver under such specifications and conditions are particularly encouraged to participate, providing a platform to expand their market presence and expertise in the region.
