UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council is seeking a contractor to carry out garage maintenance and refurbishment works. The requirement covers repair and maintenance services and refurbishment work for the Council’s garages. The Council is based in Welwyn Garden City; the procurement data does not identify a more specific delivery location. Operatives working on the contract must hold current asbestos-awareness training certification and the required accreditation for removing non-licensed asbestos, which must be shown to the Supervising Officer before work begins. This is a works contract for suppliers able to undertake garage maintenance while meeting the stated asbestos-related requirements.

The Council invited tenders through an open competition. The enquiry deadline was 2 December 2026 at 12:00, and the tender submission deadline was 11 December 2026 at 12:00. The contract period is 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2031, with a one-year renewal option and a maximum extent to 31 March 2032. The estimated value is £1.4 million excluding VAT (£1.68 million including VAT). The procurement is organised as one lot. Offers are evaluated equally on price and quality, each weighted at 50%; detailed evaluation and participation conditions are in the tender documents. Electronic submission is allowed.

This opportunity is suited to garage-maintenance and refurbishment contractors with the workforce and technical capability to carry out repair work and manage asbestos-related risks. Every operative assigned to the contract must have current asbestos-awareness training certification and the required accreditation for removing non-licensed asbestos; these credentials must be presented to the Council’s Supervising Officer before work starts. Suppliers therefore need to ensure that all operatives deployed meet these requirements, rather than relying on accreditation held only by management or specialist subcontractors. The single-lot arrangement and multi-year contract period call for a supplier able to provide consistent maintenance and refurbishment services over an extended term. The equal weighting of price and quality makes both a competitive cost proposal and a credible quality offer important.
