Summary of the contracting process

Dumfries and Galloway Health Board procured fire damper maintenance services for its estates and property portfolio. The work covers routine inspection, maintenance and servicing of various types of fire damper across sites in Dumfries and Galloway. This is a specialist building engineering and fire safety maintenance requirement, classified under CPV 50222100. The Health Board is the buyer and the contracting organisation, with delivery across its premises in the Dumfries and Galloway area. The requirement is for a stable maintenance workforce able to work within healthcare premises and comply with the Board’s infection control arrangements, known as HAI-SCRIBE. The contract also anticipated some subcontracting where specialist skills or marginal changes in demand required additional support.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Cleartech Group Ltd. The restricted procedure used a selective method, with six candidates invited to the second stage. Bids were due by 21 May 2026 at 12:00, and the second-stage invitation date was 11 June 2026. The lot had an estimated value of £150,000 and a contract duration of 1,080 days, with a possible 12-month extension in one-year blocks. The contract was signed on 24 August 2026 for £54,360 and is active. Evaluation weighted quality at 40% and price at 60%; variants were not allowed. Five bids were received, including four from SMEs, and electronic submission was required. The requirement is described as recurring over three years.

This procurement indicates a defined need for specialist fire damper maintenance across a healthcare estate, making it relevant to contractors experienced in inspection, servicing and routine maintenance of varied fire damper systems. A credible future supplier would need membership of a recognised national specialist body or association, such as the Association for Specialist Fire Protection or the Building Engineering Services Association. CHAS Advanced registration is a mandatory requirement, with evidence expected during the procurement process. Healthcare-site experience is important because infection control measures are strictly enforced on NHS Dumfries and Galloway premises. Strong candidates would also demonstrate a stable directly employed workforce, while managing specialist subcontractors where needed. The requirement was suitable for SME participation, as shown by the majority of bids coming from SMEs.
