UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Shropshire Council is seeking a contractor to inspect, test, maintain and repair fixed and portable fire-extinguishing equipment at properties supported by its Property Services Group. The service covers planned maintenance and compliance inspections for portable fire extinguishers, fire blankets, fire hydrants and fixed fire-extinguishing systems. It also includes remedial works, emergency and reactive repairs, reporting and updating asset records. This is a fire-safety equipment maintenance service (CPV 50413200), delivered across Shropshire Council-supported properties in Shropshire. The detailed service requirements, standards, performance measures and contract obligations are set out in the specification and supporting tender materials.

The council invited offers through an open procedure. The tender deadline was 30 October 2026 at 12:00, and the deadline for enquiries was 30 October 2026 at 11:00. The stated award decision date was 16 November 2026. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2031, with an option to extend by a further two years, to 30 November 2033. The estimated value is £510,000 excluding VAT (£612,000 including VAT). There is one lot. Evaluation is weighted 50% quality, 40% price and 10% social value.

The requirement suits fire-safety contractors able to manage a broad portfolio of fixed and portable firefighting equipment across council-supported properties. Suppliers need to deliver planned inspection, testing and preventative maintenance alongside compliance checks, remedial work and responsive emergency repairs. The service also calls for reliable reporting and accurate upkeep of equipment asset records. Businesses should be prepared to demonstrate the operational capacity to cover varied equipment types and locations, respond to reactive requests and meet the standards and performance measures in the specification. Quality is the largest part of the evaluation, with social value also assessed alongside price, so bidders should be able to evidence service quality and relevant social value commitments. The opportunity is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.
