Summary of the contracting process

Mole Valley District Council is procuring a fully managed mechanical and electrical maintenance service for The Swan Centre shopping centre in Leatherhead. The requirement covers planned preventative maintenance, reactive repairs, statutory inspections and testing, emergency call-outs, compliance reporting and associated contract management. The service is intended to support the centre’s safe, legally compliant and efficient operation. The successful contractor will report operationally to Estama (UK) Limited, which manages the centre’s day-to-day operations for the council. Work will take place in a live shopping-centre environment, requiring careful planning to minimise disruption to tenants, visitors, other contractors and normal centre operations. This is a services contract for repair and maintenance work, classified under CPV 50000000.

The procurement has reached tender: Mole Valley District Council invited offers through an open procedure. It is a single-lot contract. The estimated value is £280,000 excluding VAT, or £336,000 including VAT. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 February 2027 to 31 January 2030, with one possible 12-month extension to 31 January 2031 at the council’s discretion and subject to performance. The deadline for enquiries was 20 October 2026 at 5pm, and the deadline for tender submissions was 3 November 2026 at noon. The council expected to complete its award decision by 4 January 2027. Tenders are evaluated on quality, weighted at 60%, and price, weighted at 40%.

This opportunity suits an established mechanical and electrical maintenance contractor able to deliver a comprehensive, fully managed service in a busy commercial property. Suppliers should be able to organise planned preventative and reactive maintenance, statutory inspections, testing, emergency response and compliance reporting within an operational shopping centre. The work calls for qualified and experienced personnel, dependable call-out capacity and the ability to coordinate activities around tenants, visitors, contractors and trading operations. Strong contract-management and reporting capability will be important because the contractor will work operationally with Estama on behalf of the council. Businesses with experience maintaining complex, occupied retail or similarly public-facing premises are well placed to compete, particularly where they can demonstrate safe working and minimal operational disruption.
