Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hillingdon is procuring works to replace or upgrade door-entry and access-control systems in 40 low- and medium-rise blocks. The contractor is to design, supply, install, commission and hand over complete, working audio door-entry systems. The work also includes providing operation and maintenance manuals and training for the Council representative responsible for the blocks. The requirement covers the full schedule of works, including items delivered by specialist subcontractors. This is access-control and electrical installation work, with associated security-equipment maintenance. Delivery is in the London Borough of Hillingdon, including Uxbridge.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition under a below-threshold procedure. The procurement reached the tender stage; the published tender status is active. The enquiry deadline was 23 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC, and the submission deadline was 26 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The single lot has a stated contract period from 1 March to 1 May 2027. Its estimated value is £200,000 excluding VAT (£240,000 including VAT). Award is based equally on quality and price, weighted 50% each. Electronic submission is allowed, and tender documents are available through the supplier portal.

This requirement suits access-control and security-system contractors able to deliver a planned, multi-block replacement programme, from system design and supply through installation, commissioning and handover. Suppliers need the capacity to coordinate work across 40 low- and medium-rise residential blocks and to provide complete, functional audio entry systems. The contractor must price the entire schedule of works, including specialist subcontracted work, so established relationships with electrical and security specialists, or the ability to obtain their rates, will support a complete bid. Experience producing operation and maintenance manuals and training a council representative is also relevant. The opportunity is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and participation is reserved for qualifying smaller businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises based in the UK.
