Summary of the contracting process

Rutland County Council sought a service provider to carry out annual servicing of its gas heating systems and inspect gas infrastructure and equipment. The work included issuing CP12 gas safety certificates, in line with the applicable regulatory framework, the service specification and manufacturers’ requirements. The purpose was to complete the servicing and certification before the 2026–27 heating season. This is a gas boiler, appliance and central-heating maintenance service for the council’s estate. The council was the buying organisation and the services were required in connection with its operations in Rutland. The requirement was structured as a single package covering the full servicing and certification service, rather than separate specialist packages.

The procurement reached tender: Rutland County Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition, with electronic submission allowed. Enquiries had to be submitted by 28 August 2026 at 12:00, and offers by 7 September 2026 at 12:00. The planned contract period was 14 September to 31 October 2026. The estimated value was £50,000 excluding VAT and £60,000 including VAT. Bids were to be evaluated on price, weighted at 60%, and quality, weighted at 40%. The tender was subsequently cancelled, with the award marked cancelled and the final status recorded on 18 September 2026. No reason for the cancellation is provided. The opportunity therefore did not proceed to a contract award.

This requirement suits a competent and suitably experienced gas servicing and maintenance contractor able to manage annual servicing of gas heating systems, boilers, gas appliances and central-heating equipment. Suppliers need the technical capability to inspect gas infrastructure and equipment and complete CP12 inspection, testing and certification work. Delivery must follow the council’s specification, manufacturers’ requirements and the applicable regulatory framework, so relevant gas safety competence, qualified personnel and robust compliance procedures are important. The work requires a provider able to coordinate servicing and certification across the council’s estate and complete the programme before the heating season. Small and medium-sized enterprises were identified as suitable participants. The evaluation placed greater emphasis on price than quality.
