Summary of the contracting process

The Sheffield College is seeking a provider for general maintenance and repair services across its college estate in Sheffield. The work is a broad, estate-wide maintenance service rather than a purchase of a single item: the requirement covers general repairs and maintenance across the College’s properties. Suppliers whose business focuses on maintaining and repairing buildings and facilities are the most directly relevant. The procurement is for services, with repair and maintenance as its central purpose. The College is the organisation buying the service and the estate in Sheffield is where the work is to be delivered.

The College invited offers through an open procedure. The requirement is arranged as one lot. The enquiry deadline was 4 November 2026 at 17:00, and the submission deadline was 13 November 2026 at 11:59. The stated estimated value is £250,000 excluding VAT and £300,000 including VAT. The contract period is 10 December 2026 to 10 December 2029, with provision for renewal described as 3+1+1 and a maximum extent date of 10 December 2031. The stated evaluation basis is the most advantageous tender: quality is weighted at 70% and price at 30%. Quality assessment covers technical competence, service delivery, contract management, experience and social value; the highest-scoring compliant tender is to be awarded.

This requirement is suited to providers able to deliver a broad maintenance and repair service across a college estate, rather than firms offering only a narrow specialist repair. The evaluation favours quality over price, so bidders will need to demonstrate technical competence and a credible approach to service delivery and contract management. Relevant experience is expressly assessed, as is social value. Businesses with established processes for coordinating maintenance work across multiple properties, managing service delivery and evidencing their performance in comparable settings may therefore be well placed to compete. The published criteria do not identify a required accreditation or staff qualification, so the clearest differentiators are the stated quality areas and the ability to provide a compliant service.
