Planned Building Maintenance And Minor Works Framework
Framework Description
Wolverhampton City Council is procuring a Planned Building Maintenance and Minor Works Framework (CWC25131) for capital repairs, maintenance and new build across its portfolio of around 1,897 public buildings and properties. Projects will range from £5,000 to £500,000 across four lots. The framework term is 21 September 2026 to 20 September 2030, with no extension.
Context & Use Case
The council's property and asset teams will use the framework for planned maintenance and smaller capital works across its estate. Lots split specialist trades from general building, and general building is split by project value so smaller contractors can compete for lower-value jobs while larger firms take projects up to £500,000.
Scope of Services
Lot 1: windows, glazing and associated doors Lot 2: roofing Lot 3: general building up to £50,000 Lot 4: general building from £50,001 to £500,000
Lots
Lot 1 - Window/Glazing & Associated Doors; Lot 2 - Roofing; Lot 3 - General Building up to £50,000; Lot 4 - General Building £50,001 to £500,000
Who Can Apply
Window and glazing installers, roofing contractors and general builders of all sizes. The tender closed on 3 August 2026, so contractors that did not bid cannot join this round and will need to prepare for the re-tender, likely around September 2030.
Buyer Benefits
The council gets contractors in place for planned work on a large estate without running separate tenders for each project. Value-banded general building lots give it access to small local builders for minor jobs, while trade lots for windows and roofing bring specialist skills to recurring work.
Next Steps
Bidders should watch Find a Tender for the award notice (the tender notice is 058567-2026) and prepare to mobilise. Successful contractors should plan for any call-off competitions. Others should note the 20 September 2030 end date, keep an eye on Wolverhampton City Council's other building works opportunities, and gather public sector case studies for the next procurement.
