UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Borough of Telford & Wrekin sought security services for a five-room homelessness hostel and ad hoc security in housing. The work is for the council in Telford and the surrounding borough. The requirement combines security provision at a small hostel with additional, occasional security support for housing services. The council is the buying organisation and invited suppliers to bid for the service. This opportunity is relevant to security providers able to serve local authority housing settings and deliver both planned hostel security and responsive support when needed.

The council invited offers through an open, below-threshold competition. The tender’s submission deadline was 7 July 2026 at 12:00, and the enquiry deadline was 7 July 2026 at 11:59. The stated contract period ran from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027, with a possible 12-month renewal and a maximum extent to 31 July 2028. The estimated value was £130,000 excluding VAT (£156,000 including VAT). Evaluation was based on quality (50%), price (40%) and social value (10%). The process was subsequently cancelled: the buyer said the service scope had changed and could materially affect the contract requirements, which were still under consideration.

This requirement suited security services suppliers able to provide security at a five-room homelessness hostel and respond to ad hoc security needs in housing. Suppliers needed to be able to deliver the work for a council in Telford and the surrounding borough. The evaluation placed the greatest weight on quality, with social value also assessed alongside price, so bidders needed to address service quality and social value as well as cost. The council discontinued this procurement because it was reconsidering the service scope; it said it would restart the tender once the requirements had been confirmed.
