UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Devon and Cornwall Police is buying maintenance and repair services for automatic gates, doors and roller shutters, alongside Dorset Police and Gloucestershire Constabulary. The work covers the police forces’ facilities in Devon and Cornwall, Dorset, and Gloucestershire. It concerns maintaining access gates, doors and roller shutters and their associated electrical and mechanical building installations. The procurement is divided into three geographical lots, one for each police force area. Suppliers can bid for one, several or all of the areas, making this relevant both to local maintenance firms and to providers able to cover multiple counties. The requirement is for ongoing maintenance rather than the supply of new gates or doors.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure. The tender set an enquiry deadline of 13 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC and a bid submission deadline of 4 December 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The planned contract period for each lot runs from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2032. The estimated total value is £540,000 excluding VAT (£648,000 including VAT); individual lot estimates excluding VAT are £206,938 for Devon and Cornwall, £181,498 for Dorset and £151,564 for Gloucestershire. Bids are assessed separately for each lot: price carries 50%, quality 40% and social value 10%. Suppliers may bid for any combination of lots, and one supplier may win all three if its offers meet the criteria and provide the best overall value for each.

This requirement suits firms with the operational capacity to maintain and repair automatic gates, doors and roller shutters across police sites, either within one of the three areas or across several. Small and medium-sized businesses are explicitly considered suitable, and the lots allow firms to target a local service area rather than necessarily cover the whole geography. Providers should be able to demonstrate a strong quality offer alongside competitive pricing, with social value also contributing to the assessment. The multi-year nature of the work may suit established maintenance contractors able to deliver a consistent service over an extended period. The tender identifies the equipment and service scope, but does not set out particular accreditations, staffing levels or technical experience requirements in the supplied information.
