The requirement covers planned preventative maintenance, annual servicing, inspection and testing, together with reactive maintenance and repairs when equipment fails, operates incorrectly, is damaged or needs remedial work. The buyer intends to appoint a single contractor for the complete requirement. This is a catering equipment maintenance service, classified under CPV 50883000. The college is acting as a central purchasing body, and the requirement includes community benefits, with the expected benefits set out in the Invitation to Tender documentation. The work is therefore suited to firms able to maintain a varied commercial catering-equipment estate and provide both scheduled and responsive engineering support. The procurement has reached tender: the college invited offers through an open procedure, with bids submitted electronically. It is a single-lot requirement with an estimated value of £72,000. The bid deadline and bid opening were set for 18 September 2026 at 12:00 GMT. The evaluation and award period was due to start at that time, and bids were required to remain valid until 18 December 2026. The contract period is 1,080 days, with a possible 12-month renewal. Electronic ordering and electronic payment apply, while electronic invoicing is allowed. Variants are not permitted. The selection basis covers economic and technical criteria, including financial standing, relevant technical requirements, and required insurance evidence before award. The requirement is expected to recur in August 2030. This opportunity suits a contractor with demonstrable experience maintaining commercial catering and kitchen equipment, including planned preventative maintenance, annual servicing, inspection, testing, fault diagnosis, repair and remedial work. Suppliers need the operational capacity to manage scheduled activity across a college estate while responding to equipment failures within the agreed scope. Financial resilience is important: bidders must show that at least two of three measures—profitability, liquidity and gearing—meet the stated thresholds, or provide evidence supporting mitigating factors. Before award, the successful supplier must be able to provide employers’ compulsory liability insurance of £5 million and public liability insurance of £10 million. The contractor must also meet the technical requirements in the procurement documents, submit in English, and deliver the specified community benefits. ## Notice City of Glasgow College is seeking to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced contractor to provide comprehensive maintenance services for catering equipment across the College's estate. ### Lot Information Lot 1 City of Glasgow College is seeking to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced contractor to provide comprehensive maintenance services for catering equipment across the College's estate.
