Summary of the contracting process

Shropshire Council procured services to maintain thermostatic mixing valves. The requirement covers annual cleaning, inspection, servicing and maintenance of these valves, which control water temperature in building water systems and require specialist safety and compliance knowledge. This is a public-sector facilities maintenance opportunity focused on valve repair and maintenance services, rather than the supply of new equipment or wider building services. The council is the buying organisation and the work supports its own operational estate. The requirement was arranged as a single package and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Businesses with a dedicated water hygiene, plumbing maintenance or valve servicing capability would find the subject matter most relevant.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Shropshire Council used a below-threshold open competition. The tender deadline was 27 April 2026 at 12:00, and the contract was awarded to Rock Compliance Limited on 8 June 2026. The contract was signed on 12 June 2026 and runs from 15 June 2026 to 31 March 2027. The awarded contract value is £38,807.41 gross, against an estimated tender value of £38,800 gross. There was one package. Evaluation weighted quality at 60% and price at 40%. Four bids were received, including three from SMEs. The contract is classified as services.

This award shows that Shropshire Council buys planned, annual thermostatic mixing valve maintenance as a defined specialist service. A credible competitor would need the practical capability to clean, inspect, service, repair and maintain thermostatic mixing valves across a public-sector estate, with reliable scheduling and the capacity to complete recurring annual visits. Strong quality evidence matters more than price alone, since quality carried the greater evaluation weighting. Relevant businesses are likely to include specialist water hygiene contractors, plumbing maintenance companies and valve service providers with demonstrable technical competence, safe working arrangements and experience managing compliance-sensitive work. The participation of three SMEs indicates that the requirement can be delivered by smaller firms with suitable specialist capacity.
