Summary of the contracting process

Salvation Army Housing Association procured services to maintain and repair door-entry systems, gates, security equipment and CCTV, including associated electrical installation work, across its housing portfolio. The requirement was divided into three geographic areas: the North, covering the North East, North West and Yorkshire and the Humber; London and the South East, including the East of England; and the South West. Suppliers were appointed for each area. The work centres on keeping building access and security systems operational, with delivery across the relevant regional properties. This is a specialist building-services opportunity combining electrical systems maintenance with security and access-control expertise, rather than a general construction contract.

The procurement is complete and all three contracts have been awarded. Ashley & McDonough Limited won the North contract at £1,458,333; ABCA Systems Limited won London and the South East at £1,283,333; and Severnsides Security Ltd won the South West at £525,000. Each contract was signed on 2 October 2026 and runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2029, with options for extensions of up to two years and a further two years, subject to satisfactory reviews. The open procedure evaluated price (40%), written quality responses (25%) and presented quality responses (35%). Bids were due by 29 May 2026, with enquiries by 18 May 2026. Suppliers could bid for and win multiple areas; economic and technical selection criteria applied.

For suppliers that did not win, this award shows demand for regional contractors able to maintain and repair housing providers’ door-entry, gate, security and CCTV systems, including related electrical installations. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate technical and economic capacity, and produce strong written and presented quality responses alongside a competitive price: quality together carried greater weight than price. The buyer marked all three areas as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, and the awards went to a mix of a small business and larger suppliers. Bidders competed by geographic area, with no limit on the number of areas they could pursue or win. Performance and quality of service and delivery are explicit considerations in the extension reviews, so reliable regional service delivery would be central to competing for this buyer’s requirement again.
