Summary of the contracting process

Dartford Borough Council has finalised the award stage for a significant procurement contract titled "Garage Management & Framework Tender". This procurement process is classified under the services industry category, specifically addressing building and facilities management, as well as repair and maintenance services. The awarded contract, with a gross value of GBP 1,185,600, will engage "SECURE PARKING AND STORAGE LIMITED" for the management of non-residential assets, primarily garage sites. The open procedure method was utilised for this tender, ensuring a transparent selection process. The contract spans from 1st December 2025 to 30th November 2029, with the procurement taking place within the UKJ4 region, United Kingdom. The complete process, eventually awarding all four received bids, reflects adherence to legal and regulatory compliance as per UKPGA 2023/54.

This procurement offers substantial opportunities for businesses, notably those specialising in property management and maintenance services, to not only manage and optimise existing infrastructure but also to contribute to a broader capital works improvement programme. The focus on non-residential assets management, including tenant interaction, revenue optimisation, and repair facilitation, means that enterprises with strong technical and operational capabilities are ideal candidates. Companies equipped to navigate frameworks and keen on working with local authorities like Dartford Borough Council stand to benefit significantly from the recurring and scalable nature of the contract, including potential expansion beyond council boundaries. This initiative fosters business growth by providing structured engagement and long-term service opportunities within the public sector.
