UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

New College Swindon is seeking electrical maintenance services across its college estate in Swindon. The work covers planned maintenance, statutory testing, reactive repairs and associated electrical works to the college’s electrical installations. This is a services contract combining ongoing maintenance with responsive repair work; the item classification includes electrical installation work and electrical services. The requirement applies across the college estate rather than to a single stated building or address. Suppliers whose work covers electrical building systems and maintenance are the most directly relevant. The college is the buying organisation and will use the contract to maintain and repair its electrical installations and meet statutory testing requirements.

The buyer invited tenders through an open procedure. The procurement is divided into one lot. The tender submission deadline set by the buyer was 19 November 2026 at 10:00 UTC, and the deadline for enquiries was 9 November 2026 at 10:00 UTC. The contract period runs from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2030. The estimated contract value is £400,000, with a gross estimate of £480,000. Evaluation gives price a 50% weighting; quality accounts for the other 50%, covering quality assurance, risk assessments and method statements, reporting, health and safety, business continuity and emergency response, relevant experience and delivery approach, social value, qualifications and accreditations, workforce competence, and experience in safeguarding and educational environments. The lot is marked as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This opportunity may suit electrical contractors able to maintain building electrical systems, carry out statutory testing and respond to reactive repair requests across a college estate. Suppliers need to demonstrate sound quality assurance, risk assessment and method statement practices, together with effective reporting and health and safety management. A credible continuity and emergency response capability is relevant to keeping the estate operational. The buyer will assess relevant contract experience and the proposed delivery approach, as well as qualifications, accreditations and workforce competence. Experience working in educational settings, including safeguarding considerations, is specifically assessed. Social value forms part of the quality assessment, alongside technical capability. The single-lot requirement is identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, making it relevant to organisations with the capacity to deliver estate-wide maintenance and repairs.
