Summary of the contracting process

Connexus Homes Limited procured door entry and intercom services for its housing sites in Shropshire and Herefordshire. The requirement covers annual servicing, minor repairs, emergency call-outs, and installing or replacing door entry and intercom systems. Connexus uses the CAME KMS access-control system to manage and secure access across its properties, and the contractor is expected to maintain those systems and install and maintain Intratone systems. The procurement is for building-installation repair and maintenance, electronic security locks, door locks and security-system engineering. Connexus identified 146 door entry systems across the two counties, with some systems located in the same blocks. The work is categorised as services and concerns housing access and security infrastructure.

The procurement is complete and both lots were awarded to Sureserve Compliance Fire Limited on 22 April 2026. The Shropshire lot was awarded at £222,603 gross and the Herefordshire lot at £427,397 gross; the contract values are the same. Connexus used an open procedure, with quality written submissions weighted at 70% and price at 30% for each lot. The tender deadline was 20 February 2026 at 12:00 noon, with award decisions due by 23 February 2026. Contracts were signed on 27 July 2026 and run from 24 August 2026 to 23 August 2028, with an option to extend for three further years following satisfactory annual performance reviews, up to 23 August 2031.

This award shows a defined requirement for a specialist access-control and door-entry maintenance provider serving a sizeable housing portfolio across two neighbouring counties. A credible competitor would need practical experience maintaining CAME KMS systems, together with the capability to install and maintain Intratone equipment. It would also need to deliver planned annual servicing, responsive minor repairs, emergency call-outs and replacement or new installation work across multiple housing sites, including blocks containing several systems. The evaluation placed substantially greater emphasis on the quality of the written submission than on price, so future competitors should be able to explain a robust service approach, technical competence, response arrangements and reliable delivery across a dispersed property estate. Both lots were identified as suitable for SMEs.
