Summary of the contracting process

Dundee City Council procured inspection, testing, servicing and maintenance of boosted water tank and pump systems, including associated equipment, across various council properties in Dundee. This is a building-services and pump-maintenance requirement, covering planned servicing and responsive maintenance of water-system installations. The buyer is Dundee City Council, a local authority, and the work is delivered at its properties in Dundee. The selected supplier is a building-services business, indicating that the requirement suits firms able to maintain mechanical building installations as well as pumps, tanks, valves and related equipment. The procurement also includes emergency call-out provision, programme delivery, service documentation and management of disruption during works. It is a single requirement rather than a group of separate geographical or technical lots.

The procurement has been awarded following an open procedure. Four electronic bids were received, all from SMEs, and the award period began on 18 June 2026. Scan Building Services Ltd was selected, and Dundee City Council signed an active contract on 22 July 2026. The contract value is £250,928.28. The planned contract period is 1,080 days, with an option of two years followed by a further two years. Evaluation gave 40% to price and 60% to quality, including resourcing, emergency call-outs, programme of works, documentation, customer care, continuous improvement, disruption, community benefits and Fair Work First. The tender was due to recur seven years later if all extension options were used. Bids had to be in English and remain valid for 120 days.

This opportunity indicates recurring demand from Dundee City Council for specialist maintenance of boosted water tanks and pump systems across a dispersed property estate. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable pump and building-installation maintenance capability, with sufficient staff and systems to plan inspections, servicing, testing, documentation and programmes of work. The evaluation placed substantial emphasis on resourcing, emergency call-outs, minimising disruption, customer care, feedback and continuous improvement, so firms should be able to evidence reliable response arrangements and clear communication. Financial strength was also important: bidders needed an Equifax score of at least 35 and employer’s liability and public liability insurance of £10 million per claim, including for relevant subcontractors. The successful supplier was an SME, showing that specialist smaller businesses can compete for this requirement.
