UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Solihull College and University Centre is buying water treatment services and water risk assessments for its three campuses: Blossomfield and Woodlands in Solihull, and its Stratford-upon-Avon campus. The work covers planned preventative maintenance, emergency call-outs, remedial repairs, annual updates to water-system schematics and installation work. The requirement is intended to maintain compliant water systems and continuity of service across the college estate. This is a services contract combining ongoing maintenance and assessment with responsive repair and installation work; it is relevant to contractors able to deliver water treatment and risk assessment across multiple educational sites.

The college invited tenders through an open competition. The enquiry deadline was 3 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC, and the tender submission deadline was 10 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The single-lot contract is scheduled to run from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2028, with possible extensions up to 31 December 2030. The estimated value is £80,000 excluding VAT and £100,000 including VAT. Bids are assessed on quality (60%) and price (40%). Tender submissions are to be made through the In-Tend portal; suppliers are instructed to register for a CDP code before submitting. The procurement documents and upload guidance are available through that portal.

This opportunity suits water-treatment contractors with the technical capability and operational coverage to maintain and assess systems across three college campuses. Suppliers should be able to plan and carry out preventative maintenance, respond to emergency call-outs, undertake remedial repairs and installation work, and keep water-system schematics updated annually. The scope also calls for water risk assessment capability. Delivery depends on completing work to agreed deadlines and pricing, and on providing certified compliance records; these performance measures are also used to determine whether extensions are granted. Businesses with established processes for documenting compliance, managing planned and urgent work, and coordinating service across several sites are well placed to compete.
