UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Milton Keynes City Council is seeking one supplier to deliver planned and reactive mechanical and electrical services across a small number of complex sites in Milton Keynes. The work covers maintenance and repair of mechanical and electrical building installations, installation of related equipment, and mechanical engineering services. It is a service contract rather than a supply of equipment alone. The council is the buyer, and the requirement is intended to cover its sites; the location data identifies the United Kingdom but does not name individual sites. Suppliers would be responsible for both planned work and responses to reactive needs under a single-provider arrangement.

The council invited offers through an open procedure. This is the tender stage, with bids submitted electronically through the council’s e-tendering system. The enquiry deadline was 12 November 2026 at 23:59, and the submission deadline was 26 November 2026 at 12:00. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 July 2027 to 30 June 2030, with an option for the council to extend it by up to 24 months, to 30 June 2032. The estimated value is £1,715,000 excluding VAT (£2,058,000 including VAT). There is one lot. Award is based on quality, weighted at 60%, and price, weighted at 40%; the council set 3 March 2027 as the award decision date.

This opportunity is suited to mechanical and electrical building-services contractors able to manage planned maintenance and reactive call-outs across several complex sites, and to provide associated installation and engineering services. The requirement is for a single provider, so bidders need the operational capacity to cover the council’s portfolio rather than just deliver isolated tasks. Small and medium-sized enterprises are identified as suitable, making the opportunity potentially accessible to capable smaller firms, including those able to work through subcontractors or delivery partners. Quality carries greater evaluation weight than price, so suppliers should be ready to demonstrate the quality and reliability of their service approach alongside competitive pricing. The contract also offers scope for a multi-year service relationship, with a possible extension.
