Summary of the contracting process

RAISE Education Trust is procuring planned and preventative building maintenance for its three schools, which are based in Southampton. The service covers planned and preventative maintenance during term time and outside term time. The work is classified as building and facilities management services (CPV 79993000). Delivery is in the South Hampshire area. The Trust is the buyer, with Minerva Procurement Consultancy Services Limited providing procurement support. The requirement is for a single service covering the Trust’s sites, rather than separate contracts for individual locations.

The procurement has been awarded to Corrigenda Limited; the published award is pending. The award date is 21 October 2026, following a selective competitive flexible procedure. Three bids reached the final stage. The awarded value is £467,199.22 excluding VAT (£560,639.06 including VAT). The contract is due to run from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2029, with two optional 12-month extensions that could extend it to 31 December 2031. The procurement was not divided into lots. Evaluation weighted quality at 70% and price at 30%. The initial participation stage used a Procurement Specific Questionnaire to shortlist suppliers for the invitation to tender; shortlisted bidders then submitted final tenders and attended presentations. The standstill period ends on 30 October 2026.

For suppliers competing when this requirement returns to market, the award shows demand for a full planned and preventative maintenance service across a small group of schools in a close geographic area. A credible competitor would need to deliver maintenance reliably both during term time and outside it, while coordinating work across multiple school sites. The buyer’s evaluation placed substantially more weight on quality than price, so evidence of a strong service approach and the ability to meet the Trust’s maintenance requirements would matter alongside competitive pricing. The staged process also tested participation requirements, written tender responses and supplier presentations. One of the three final-stage bidders was an SME, showing that the competition included a smaller supplier, while the selected provider was a large business. TUPE was not expected to apply.
