## Summary

The London Borough of Hillingdon is planning a reactive scaffolding and access services contract for its property portfolio. The work will provide safe, compliant and responsive temporary access solutions for inspection, maintenance, repair and improvement projects, including both planned and unplanned works. The service will cover the erection, adaptation, inspection, maintenance and dismantling of scaffolding and associated temporary access structures. This is a construction access and scaffolding services requirement, with delivery across the authority’s property portfolio in Hillingdon, London. The main classification is scaffolding services, including scaffolding work and related services.

This procurement is at the planning stage: Hillingdon has stated an intention to procure but has not issued an invitation to tender. The buyer expects the contract to start on 1 January 2027 and run to 31 December 2031, with a possible extension taking the maximum end date to 31 December 2033. The requirement is above the relevant threshold and is planned as one lot. The lot is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The authority is conducting preliminary market engagement, with interested suppliers expected to return a questionnaire by 4 September 2026. Engagement responses will inform the possible future procurement but will not be scored or evaluated.

This requirement is likely to suit scaffolding contractors and access specialists able to provide a responsive service across a public property portfolio, including urgent call-outs as well as planned programmes of work. Suitable suppliers will need practical capacity to erect, adapt, inspect, maintain and dismantle scaffolding and related temporary access structures safely and compliantly. Experience supporting building inspections, maintenance, repairs and improvement works would be directly relevant. The scope may favour businesses that can manage changing requirements, coordinate with property and repair teams, and maintain reliable response arrangements for unplanned work. The authority has indicated that small and medium-sized enterprises are suitable, so established regional contractors as well as larger providers should monitor the future tender and prepare relevant evidence of capability.
