Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council intends to procure annual servicing, remedial maintenance and responsive repairs for automatic doors, barriers and gates at civic and commercial properties across Leeds. The work covers mechanical building-installation maintenance and is a service contract rather than a supply or construction project. It is intended to keep access-control equipment operating safely and reliably across the council’s property estate, including planned servicing and reactive response when faults or damage occur. The procurement is suitable for businesses that maintain automatic doors, vehicle or pedestrian barriers, and powered gates, with the operational capability to provide city-wide coverage. The published scope is associated with repair and maintenance services for mechanical building installations (CPV 50712000).

This process is at the planning stage: Leeds City Council has announced an intention to procure, but has not issued an invitation to tender. The council has scheduled preliminary market engagement, asking suppliers to review the PME documentation on its Jaggaer profile by 21 September 2026. The planned contract is for 2 January 2027 to 1 January 2029, with a possible extension to 1 January 2030 and renewal provisions. Its estimated value is £360,000 excluding VAT, or £432,000 including VAT, over the procurement. The service is above the relevant threshold and is arranged as one lot. The lot is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The expected procurement procedure and evaluation basis have not yet been set out.

This will suit specialist access-equipment maintenance contractors with experience servicing, repairing and responding to faults in automatic doors, barriers and powered gates across multiple civic and commercial sites. Businesses should be prepared to demonstrate reliable planned-maintenance delivery alongside responsive repair capability, fault diagnosis and remedial works. The requirement favours suppliers able to organise engineers, scheduling and call-out coverage across Leeds, while maintaining consistent service standards across a property portfolio. Firms that already support public, commercial or other multi-site estates may be well placed to contribute relevant experience during the market-engagement stage. The lot is expressly suitable for SMEs, so smaller regional contractors with sufficient technical capacity and operational coverage should consider reviewing the PME material and preparing their service approach before the procurement reaches the tender stage.
