In plain English
Trust Housing Association is looking for a contractor to maintain, repair and upgrade the alarm and access equipment in its homes and developments. This covers warden call systems, smoke, heat and carbon monoxide alarms, door entry systems and automatic doors, with an estimated contract value of £5,500,000.
What the buyer wants
• Planned preventative maintenance and reactive repairs for warden call equipment, grouped and dispersed alarm systems, domestic smoke, heat and carbon monoxide alarms, door entry systems and automatic doors • Replacement works and support for system upgrades, including maintenance of connected peripherals • Attendance to reported faults in line with the Specification of Requirements
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice does not list specific certifications, turnover or past-experience thresholds, but it asks for a "suitably competent contractor" for a £5.5 million contract, so a small business would likely need proven experience at this scale or would need to team up with larger partners.
Always check the tender documents.
