## Summary

Royal Holloway and Bedford New College procured access control maintenance services for its university in Egham. The requirement covers monthly planned preventative maintenance and repairs for the access control system and its supporting infrastructure. Work includes inspections and support for access control readers and keypads, door controllers, locks and door-release mechanisms, exit buttons, break-glass units, power supplies and backup batteries. It also covers access control software and programming, ID card printing where installed, and associated integrations and connected devices. This is a specialist electronic security and access-control maintenance requirement, combining planned servicing, fault repair, software support and maintenance of connected hardware at the university’s facilities.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a below-threshold direct procedure without competition. It comprised one completed lot. Royal Holloway and Bedford New College awarded the contract to VINDEX SYSTEMS LIMITED on 18 August 2026. The awarded contract value is £26,360 excluding VAT, or £31,632 including VAT. The contract was signed on 18 August 2026 and runs from 18 August 2026 to 31 January 2027. The award covers access control system services and repair and maintenance services. The selected supplier is based in Sunbury-on-Thames. The contract is active, while the associated tender is recorded as complete.

This procurement shows demand from a university for an integrated access-control maintenance provider able to support both physical security equipment and the systems that operate it. A credible competitor for comparable work would need practical capability across readers, keypads, controllers, locks, door releases, exit devices, break-glass units, power supplies and backup batteries, alongside access-control software, programming and ID card printing where installed. Experience maintaining connected devices and integrations would also be relevant. The requirement suits a specialist security systems business with planned preventative maintenance processes, responsive repair capability and the capacity to service a multi-component university access-control environment. The awarded supplier was an SME, indicating that this scale of requirement can suit smaller specialist firms.
