Automatic Door, Roller Shutter and Blinds. Planned and Reactive Maintenance Framework across all WCBC Building Stock
Authority: Wrexham County Borough Council (Local council)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionWrexham County Borough Council (WCBC) has provisionally awarded two Contractors onto a Framework Agreement for the planned and reactive maintenance of automatic doors, roller shutters and blinds. This Framework covers all properties / buildings that the Council is responsible for, including both commercial and domestic properties. In addition to planned and reactive maintenance, this Framework also covers new installations of automatic doors, roller shutters and blinds. It is anticipated that these installs will be ad-hoc in nature and priced for as and when the need arises. The overarching framework will be set up using the JCT Framework Agreement (2024) with work orders (call-offs) issued and managed through the JCT Measured Term Contract (2024).
- The authority expects to re-tender this requirement around 1 Feb 2030, 23:59 GMT.
- No preliminary market engagement: Timescales do not allow and requirement is well established / common across the marketplace
CPV: Installation of doors and windows and related components · Installation of shutters · Repair and maintenance services of electrical building installations · Repair and maintenance services of mechanical building installations · Roller-type shutters · Shutters

As per the tender documents
- Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Automatic Door, Roller Shutter and Blinds. Planned and Reactive…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 3 suppliers, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
