In plain English
Wellspring Academy Trust, a group of schools, is looking for a supplier to inspect and maintain fire doors across its academies. The work is split into three regional lots (North, East and West), with the contract expected to start on 1 May 2027 and run for up to five years (an initial three years with an option for two more). The estimated value is £1,110,000.
What the buyer wants
• Inspect the fire doors at the academies in the region or regions you bid for, using the names and addresses listed in Annex A, Asset Register. • Carry out maintenance on those fire doors across the Trust's multiple sites for the duration of the contract. • Bid for one or more of the three regional lots: North, East or West.
Lots
- North region
- East region
- West region
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice does not state any specific qualifications, certifications, insurance or experience requirements, but the contract is worth about £1.1 million over up to five years and covers multiple sites across three regions, so a small firm would most likely need to bid for a single lot and show it has the capacity to cover that work.
Always check the tender documents.
How to bid
This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
Where to apply
The notice doesn't name a website for bids. Ask the buyer how to apply, using the contact on the official notice.
