## Summary

The City of London Corporation procured an annual service and maintenance agreement for the paddle gates (toilet barriers) at the Tower of London and Paternoster Square public toilets. The requirement is to maintain the barriers at these two public toilet sites in London. The procurement is described as service and maintenance, although the award item is classified under goods and carries a toilet-cleaning code; the contract title and description identify the actual requirement as paddle-gate maintenance.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Hi-Tec Washrooms Solutions Ltd. The Corporation used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 30 June 2026 and runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2029. Its gross value is £118,004.40. The published award information identifies one supplier and one lot. No evaluation criteria are recorded in the procurement details.

This award shows demand from the City of London Corporation for maintaining paddle-gate toilet barriers at prominent public toilet sites. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical capability to service and maintain this specialist washroom access equipment, and the capacity to support installations at both the Tower of London and Paternoster Square. Hi-Tec Washrooms Solutions Ltd, the selected supplier, is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise, indicating that a business of SME scale has delivered the requirement. Suppliers with relevant washroom-barrier maintenance experience and the resources to provide an annual service across multiple London locations are closest to the demonstrated need.
