## Summary

Sunderland City Council initiated a procurement process titled "Repair of Electrical and Refrigeration Catering Equipment, Planned Maintenance and PAT testing of Electrical Catering Equipment." This process fell under the industry category of repair and maintenance services and was located in Sunderland, United Kingdom. The procurement involved a four-year framework agreement with a gross value of £528,000. Initially, it was planned and executed with an open tender method involving an award period ending on 10th November 2025. However, by 28th November 2025, the tender was cancelled as it did not meet the operational requirements or provide the best value for the council.

This tender once represented significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in maintenance and repair services, specifically those focused on electrical and refrigeration catering equipment. The framework aimed to appoint two contractors, rewarding entities that excel in quality and price with a place on the ranked framework. Small and medium enterprises had particular suitability for participation under this framework.
