Summary of the contracting process

West Lothian Council is actively inviting tenders for their project titled "TMC for Roller Shutter Doors and Automatic Door." The procurement falls within the industry category of works, specifically focused on construction services for roller shutter and automatic doors across various council properties in Livingston, UKM78. The process is currently in the tender stage, following an open procedure, allowing wide participation from potential suppliers. Interested parties must submit their tenders electronically by 20th July 2026, which coincides with the bid opening date. The project carries an estimated value of £750,000 and includes performance terms and conditions, as detailed in the Invitation to Tender documents available on PCS-Tender.

This tender offers a significant opportunity for businesses operating in the construction and facilities management sectors, particularly those with expertise in installing and maintaining roller shutter and automatic doors. The contract's substantial duration of nearly three years, with a possible 24-month extension, presents a stable long-term business growth opportunity. Companies with a strong financial standing, verifiable through a Dun & Bradstreet rating or equivalent, and those who can contribute to community benefits such as skills development and training initiatives, are particularly well-suited for this tender. Such organisations can leverage this opportunity to expand their service offerings and client base by aligning with West Lothian Council’s social and economic objectives.

Tenderers with a Failure Score of 50 or above on the DBAi system will be deemed to have evidenced satisfactory financial stability. Please note that 49 or less will not be considered as having met this criteria. If a tenderer has a Failure Score of less than 50, the tenderer may be required to submit their last three years accounts. In the event that the tenderer is not required to publish accounts and therefore does not have a Dun & Bradstreet or equivalent rating, tenderers should be able to provide financial accounts when requested. The council will then conduct an analysis of the accounts to ensure that there is no significant financial risk. Please note that if you intend on attaching 2 years accounts, these must include financial data over a 3-year period. It is recommended that candidates review their own Dun & Bradstreet Score in advance of submitting their tender. If following this review tenderers consider that the Dun & Bradstreet Score does not reflect their current financial status, details of this should be provided, complete with evidence of a good high street credit rating (the equivalent of Dun & Bradstreet score 50) from a recognised credit referencing agency. The council will review any such information as part of the evaluation of Tenderer's financial status. In the event that a firm does not meet the financial criteria for consideration but has a parent company that does, the firm may still be eligible for consideration where their Tender Submission is supported by a Parent Company Guarantee. Should after review of the financial evaluation the tenderer fail, then the tender submission may be rejected.",
