Summary of the contracting process

Bradford College procured hard facilities management maintenance and portering services to support teaching delivery and the student experience. The maintenance covers planned and reactive work on infrastructure and installed equipment, including electrical systems, heating, ventilation and air conditioning, gas, refrigeration, fire and security systems, water and plumbing, lifts and hoists, and building fabric. The provider must ensure compliance with relevant legislation, regulations and College policies, minimise disruption to teaching and learning, and deliver social value aligned with the College’s sustainability and community objectives. This is facilities management work delivered for Bradford College in Bradford.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to CBRE Managed Services on 22 April 2026. The contract was signed on 2 October 2026 and is active. Its value is £7,824,958 excluding VAT (£9,389,949 including VAT). The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2029, with two possible one-year renewals, extending the maximum period to 31 July 2031. This was a competitive flexible procedure using a selective process. Four bids were received, with one reaching the final stage. Evaluation weighted quality at 45%, price at 45% and presentations at 10%. The tender was organised as one lot.

This award shows Bradford College’s demand for an integrated hard facilities management and portering provider, rather than a single-trade maintenance contractor. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need the operational breadth to maintain electrical, HVAC, gas, refrigeration, fire and security, water and plumbing, lift and hoist systems, and building fabric, alongside delivering portering. The College also values statutory and regulatory compliance, adherence to its policies, and the ability to keep disruption to teaching and learning to a minimum. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate delivery of social value that supports sustainability and community objectives. The evaluation gave equal weight to quality and price, with a further presentation element, so competitors need a persuasive service proposal as well as a competitive commercial offer.
