## Summary

Central Bedfordshire Council procured planned preventative maintenance and reactive repair services for automatic doors, shutters and bi-folding doors. The requirement covers maintaining these assets, responding to faults and carrying out repairs, with the classification focused on door installation and related services. The buyer is Central Bedfordshire Council, based at Priory House in Shefford. Delivery is associated with the council’s premises in Shefford and its wider estate. The recorded service area includes the United Kingdom and other locations, so suppliers would need to understand the operational coverage set out for the council’s sites. This is a building-maintenance opportunity for businesses specialising in automatic access systems, powered doors, shutters, bi-folding doors and associated installation or repair work.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Central Bedfordshire Council selected 1st Choice Security Systems on 16 July 2026. The awarded value is recorded as £0. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 March 2028. The process used a quotation procedure described as “Other”, with quotations and attachments submitted electronically through the council’s In-Tend tendering system. The quotation deadline was 3 August 2026 at 12 noon, and the final date for questions was 28 July 2026. The tender was for services and was recorded as complete. The award is active. The opportunity was not identified as suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award shows that Central Bedfordshire Council buys a combined service covering planned maintenance and reactive response for automatic doors, shutters and bi-folding doors, rather than a single installation project. A credible future competitor would need practical experience diagnosing faults, repairing and maintaining powered access equipment, and installing or working safely on door and shutter systems. The requirement is suited to a specialist security, automatic-door or building-services contractor with technicians able to respond to reactive call-outs as well as deliver scheduled preventative maintenance. Businesses should be able to demonstrate sufficient operational capacity for council premises across the stated service area, reliable electronic quotation processes and a clear approach to maintaining different door types. The recorded suitability assessment indicates that smaller businesses and VCSEs may face a disadvantage in competing for this requirement.
