Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham Trent University’s Estates Department procured security equipment repairs, maintenance and minor installations as required across its City and Confetti College campuses in Nottingham, Clifton campus, Brackenhurst campus and Mansfield University Centre. The requirement covers security equipment and associated electrical and mechanical building installation maintenance services. Work is delivered across the university’s campus estate in Nottinghamshire. The buying organisation is Nottingham Trent University, a public undertaking. This is a services contract for suppliers able to provide responsive repair and maintenance, planned servicing and minor installation work for security-related equipment across multiple education sites.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded and signed. It used an above-threshold open procedure. Five bids were received, including two from SMEs. The single lot was evaluated on technical capability, weighted 70%, and commercial offer, weighted 30%. PFS Fire & Security Ltd was awarded the contract on 9 July 2026 for £900,000 gross. The standstill period ended on 21 July 2026, and the contract was signed on 31 July 2026. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2029, with renewal arrangements described as 3+1+1 and a maximum possible end date of 31 July 2031. The tender submission deadline was 15 June 2026 at noon, following an extension.

This award demonstrates established demand from Nottingham Trent University for a single supplier to maintain and repair security equipment across a geographically spread university estate, while also handling minor installations when required. A credible future competitor would need the operational capacity to provide responsive coverage across Nottingham, Clifton, Brackenhurst and Mansfield, supported by engineers competent in security systems and related electrical and mechanical building installations. The requirement is suitable for SMEs, as shown by the participation of two SMEs at the final stage. Suppliers should be able to present strong technical capability, because quality carried substantially more evaluation weight than price. Experience coordinating planned and reactive maintenance across multiple occupied education sites would strengthen a future proposition.
