Summary of the contracting process

Chichester College Group has completed the procurement process for the provision of Mechanical and Electrical (M&E) services, with Paine Manwaring being awarded the contract. The services will cover planned preventative maintenance, reactive repairs, emergency call-outs, and various support services across the college's estate. Located in Chichester, UK, this procurement was conducted using an open, competitive flexible procedure. The contract, valued at £1,402,775 (GBP), was awarded on 4th June 2026, with a standstill period ending on 16th June 2026. The procurement process was initiated as a tender on 3rd February 2026, and the services are set to commence on 1st August 2026, continuing until 31st July 2029, with possible extensions for up to two years.

This procurement opportunity highlights significant growth potential for businesses specialising in M&E services. Companies that excel in maintenance, statutory inspections and emergency response are likely to benefit from such contracts. The process was open and competitive, providing ample opportunities for various suppliers to participate. Although the tender did not attract final stage bids from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), the open procedure indicates a welcoming environment for a diverse range of businesses willing to deliver high-quality technical and support services within the education sector. The flexibility of extending the contract suggests a sustained opportunity for ongoing business engagement and expansion within the public sector.
