Summary of the contracting process

Herefordshire Council sought a single supplier to provide regulatory maintenance and servicing for powered doors, gates and automatic barriers across its estate in Herefordshire. The requirement covers repair and maintenance services for building installations and related maintenance services. Work is intended to keep powered access equipment compliant, serviced and operating safely, with maintenance schedules expected to conform to the Building Engineering Services Association’s SFG20 industry standard. The council is the public-sector buyer and the service is delivered on its estate rather than for a single named site. This opportunity therefore suits a provider able to manage a portfolio of powered doors, gates and automatic barriers for a local authority, including planned preventative maintenance and regulatory servicing.

The process reached tender: Herefordshire Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Questions were due by 3 August 2026 at 12:00, and tender responses by 10 August 2026 at 12:00. The contract was planned to run from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028, with two one-year extensions available at the council’s discretion and a maximum end date of 31 August 2030. The single lot had an estimated value of £160,000 excluding VAT, or £192,000 including VAT. The award basis was 100% price. Electronic submission was allowed, with tender documents and responses handled through the council’s specified online procurement system. The procurement was subsequently cancelled on 19 August 2026.

This requirement suits specialist access-equipment maintenance contractors with the technical capability to inspect, service, repair and maintain powered doors, gates and automatic barriers across multiple council properties. Suppliers should be able to provide regulatory maintenance in line with BESA SFG20 industry-standard maintenance schedules and manage the planned preventative maintenance needs of an estate-wide equipment portfolio. A single supplier was sought, so the opportunity favours a business with sufficient operational capacity, qualified engineers and service-management arrangements to deliver consistently across Herefordshire. The stated suitability for small and medium-sized enterprises indicates that an SME with the relevant technical expertise and resources could compete. Because evaluation was based entirely on price, bidders would need to offer a competitive cost for the required maintenance service.
