Summary of the contracting process

The London & Quadrant Housing Trust is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process titled "L&Q Long Term Security," aimed at retendering its Building Security Systems' servicing and maintenance across various schemes. The focus is on repairing and maintaining security equipment such as Door Entry systems, CCTV, and Warden call facilities. This falls under the industry category of security and maintenance services (CPV codes 50610000 and 79710000). The planning documents were published on 10 December 2025, with key dates including a milestone due by 9 January 2026. The procurement method is open, with the contract expected to commence on 10 December 2026 and run potentially until 2032, with the possibility of renewal. The project locations include several regions in the United Kingdom, and it targets a reduction in service issues and charges by ensuring regular maintenance of security systems.

This procurement presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses involved in security services and maintenance, especially those capable of delivering robust preventive maintenance and responsive servicing to enhance building safety across distributed locations. SMEs in the security sector, especially those with experience in managing systems like CCTV and access controls, will find this opportunity particularly fitting due to the regional lots and the open procedure, making it accessible for varied business sizes. The estimated annual spend of approximately £2.4 million underscores the significant scale of work and potential revenue for successful bidders. By forming strategic partnerships with the London & Quadrant Housing Trust, businesses could strengthen their market presence and reputation in the public authority sector.
