Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

Most small sole traders and small businesses will struggle because you need the capacity to provide 24/7 emergency cover across multiple building types simultaneously, which typically requires a larger team, scheduling systems, and the ability to respond within defined timeframes on evenings, weekends and bank holidays.

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.
