Summary of the contracting process

Herefordshire Council initiated a tender for the provision of professional consultancy services to manage its school building maintenance programme, located in Hereford, United Kingdom. The process started with an open procedure and involved the invitation to tender for managing planned maintenance at local authority-maintained schools, with emergency interventions covered. This tender was primarily associated with building consultancy services. Initially posted on 13 January 2026, the award period concluded on 17 March 2026, with the contract expected to commence on 13 April 2026 and extend until 12 April 2029, with options for extension under certain conditions. However, due to an inaccuracy in the tender notice, the procurement was ultimately cancelled on 28 April 2026.

This tender presented significant opportunities for businesses specialising in consultancy services related to building maintenance, particularly those equipped with a multi-disciplinary team of professionals such as architects, surveyors, engineers, and designers accredited by CIOB or RICS. With a gross contract value ranging significantly, it necessitated inputs from SMEs but did not attract VCSE bids. The potential for repeat engagements and direct awards for successful suppliers also offered promising avenues for business growth. The prior involvement of SIX PROPERTY CONSULTING LIMITED highlights the type of businesses capable of competing effectively in such open procurement processes.
