UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Maidstone Borough Council is seeking maintenance services for CCTV, door-entry systems and internal magnetic-lock doors in residential blocks managed by its Housing Portfolio Team. The work is intended to keep these security and access-control systems operating across the council’s housing portfolio. The requirement combines maintenance of surveillance equipment with maintenance of building entry and internal door-locking systems, making it relevant to providers covering electronic security and access control. The buying organisation is Maidstone Borough Council, and the residential blocks are in Maidstone. The procurement is for services rather than equipment supply or building works. Suppliers whose work covers alarm systems, security cameras and ongoing system maintenance may find the scope relevant.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition. The procurement is a single lot, and the council set the enquiry deadline as 4 November 2026 at 12:00 and the offer deadline as 11 November 2026 at 12:00. The planned contract period runs from 11 January 2027 to 10 January 2030, with two possible one-year extensions, giving a maximum period to 10 January 2032. Cost carries 40% of the evaluation and quality 60%. The recorded gross value is £0. The requirement is identified as below-threshold. The published contract period and extension option define the intended term; the extensions are options rather than guaranteed additional work.

This requirement is suited to suppliers able to maintain CCTV, door-entry equipment and internal magnetic-lock doors in residential buildings. Firms combining security-camera servicing with access-control and alarm-system maintenance can address the full stated scope; specialists covering only one system type may need suitable delivery partners to cover the others. The work concerns residential blocks managed through a council housing portfolio, so relevant operational experience in occupied housing settings would help suppliers understand the environment, although no specific experience threshold is stated in the available requirement. The council marks the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. Its single-lot structure presents the whole maintenance requirement as one package.
