Summary of the contracting process

Stonewater Limited is seeking security services for Exeter Foyer. The work is to provide security at the foyer, in Exeter. This is a services contract for a single requirement, rather than a tender covering several separately described service areas.

The procurement reached the tender stage: Stonewater invited suppliers to submit offers through an open procedure. The submission deadline set by the buyer was 2 November 2026 at 4pm. The contract period is scheduled to run from 12 March 2027 to 11 March 2030, with two optional one-year extensions and a possible end date of 31 March 2032. The estimated gross value is £320,000. Quality carries 60% of the evaluation weighting and price 40%. The award decision was scheduled by 25 January 2027.

This requirement is suited to security suppliers able to provide services at a foyer in Exeter. Stonewater has marked the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses, so smaller providers may be well placed to compete if they can meet the service requirement. The evaluation gives quality greater weight than price, making the quality of the proposed service an important part of a bid alongside its cost. The work is a multi-year service with optional extensions, which may suit a supplier able to sustain delivery over a longer term.
