Sets up a framework (suppliers apply to join)

In plain English

Gloucestershire County Council is setting up a framework (a pre-approved supplier list) for maintenance and repair services across 20 different building systems. Companies can apply to bid for one or more of the lots (categories), such as lift servicing, electrical work, boiler maintenance, fire safety equipment, kitchen equipment repair, and renewable energy servicing. Once approved, they will handle reactive repairs and statutory servicing for the council's buildings.

What the buyer wants

• Supply and maintain specialist services across assigned lots: examples include servicing lifts, HVAC systems, boilers, electrical wiring, fire alarms, access controls, PV panels, heat pumps, and kitchen equipment • Respond to emergency breakdowns and complete repairs within agreed timescales • Comply with statutory regulations (Health and Safety, Building Regulations, Gas Safe, NICEIC, etc.) • Provide regular preventative maintenance and carry out associated building works as needed

Lots

Likely requirements

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

Most single-tradesperson businesses will struggle unless they already hold multiple specialist certifications and can respond quickly to emergency calls across a wide geographic area. The framework covers 20 different technical specialisms: you cannot bid for all lots, but bidding for even one lot typically requires formal qualifications, insurance, and proven track record on similar contracts, which rules out many new or unqualified traders.

How to bid

This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
