Summary of the contracting process

The Borough of Telford & Wrekin is seeking a contractor to service and provide response maintenance for air-conditioning systems, air-handling equipment and air-source heat pumps. The work covers cooling, ventilation and heating, ventilation and air-conditioning installation and maintenance, including planned servicing and responding to faults or breakdowns. It is a works requirement for the council’s buildings and facilities in Telford and Wrekin. The published classifications include cooling and ventilation equipment, construction work, and heating, ventilation and air-conditioning installation work. Suppliers will need to provide the operational capacity to maintain different types of building mechanical services and respond when repairs are required. The opportunity is intended for suppliers able to deliver public-sector estates maintenance across the Borough of Telford & Wrekin.

The process has reached tender: the council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Enquiries had to be submitted by 9 October 2026 at 12:00, and offers by 16 October 2026 at 12:00. Bids must be submitted electronically through the Telford & Wrekin tender portal; no other submission method is accepted. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030, with a possible renewal for one further year to 31 March 2031. The estimated value is £600,000 excluding VAT and £720,000 including VAT. Evaluation is based on 70% price, 10% quality, 10% environmental considerations and 10% social value. The procurement is a single lot.

This opportunity suits air-conditioning, air-handling and heat-pump maintenance contractors with the technicians, vehicles, tools and scheduling capacity to provide both routine servicing and responsive repairs across a council estate. Relevant experience in maintaining commercial or public buildings and diagnosing faults across heating, ventilation and cooling systems would be useful. The single contract offers a defined programme of planned work alongside an emergency or fault-response service, so suppliers need enough resource to manage competing call-outs and scheduled visits. The evaluation gives substantial weight to price, but quality, environmental performance and social value each form part of the assessment. Suppliers must register on the tender portal and keep their core supplier information up to date on the Central Digital Platform, sharing it with the council so exclusion grounds can be checked.
