Summary of the contracting process

Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council is currently in the planning stage of a tender for "Buildings Repair and Maintenance", targeting construction work and repair and maintenance services within the Metropolitan Borough and parishes of Oldham. The procurement process will commence soon with a market engagement notice scheduled for 31st August 2026. This project, which is valued at £7,200,000, involves various minor works for council buildings, schools, and associated infrastructure. The contract period is expected to begin on 2nd March 2027 and end on 1st March 2033, with a potential extension until 2034. The procurement aligns with sub-central government public authority standards and seeks quick response times for reactive repair and maintenance tasks.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in rapidly responsive repair and maintenance services, particularly within the construction industry. Given the tender's focus on diverse maintenance disciplines and quick response requirements, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) could find numerous growth prospects. Companies proficient in logistics or possessing the capacity to handle urgent requests will likely be well-suited to compete. Additionally, the framework agreement approach in the potential Contractor Framework/MTC Arrangements notice underscores ample possibilities for firms looking to establish ongoing partnerships with the council and expand their service offerings in the public sector.
