Summary of the contracting process

Fife Council is procuring annual servicing of mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR) units installed in new-build and existing housing stock across Fife. The units support ventilation and help limit condensation and mould in properties. This is a building-services maintenance opportunity, covering servicing of the council’s heat recovery units under a single framework arrangement. The buying organisation is Fife Council, acting as a central purchasing body. The work will be delivered throughout Fife, including council housing locations. The procurement is classified under CPV 71315410, relating to building services inspection and maintenance. It is suited to contractors able to service MVHR equipment across a housing portfolio and manage visits across multiple properties.

The process reached tender: Fife Council invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. Bids were due by 28 September 2026 at 12:00, followed by bid opening at 12:30 on the same day. The framework has a contract period of 720 days, with an optional extension of up to 24 months. It allows additional purchases in accordance with Regulation 72 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015. One lot covers servicing of MVHR units. Evaluation assigns 50 points to price and 20 points to technical competence and methodology. The framework is intended to have a maximum of one participant.
