What M&E Commissioners Expect to See in High-Scoring Tenders

End-to-end technical competence

Clear explanations of electrical installations, mechanical systems, testing, commissioning, PPM delivery, reactive repairs, and ongoing maintenance processes.

Proof of compliance with mandatory standards

Demonstrating adherence to: NICEIC / NAPIT, BESA, F-Gas, 18th Edition, CDM 2015, LOLER / PUWER,  SFG20, Water hygiene & legionella standards, Net Zero and sustainability requirements

Commissioners expect these to be evidenced, not implied

Robust H&S and risk management regimes

RAMS quality, permit-to-work systems, isolation procedures, incident reporting, engineer competency tracking, and site supervision arrangements.

A clear, contract-ready delivery model

Allocating engineers, resourcing peaks, managing out-of-hours calls, subcontractor oversight, and real SLAs supported by actual performance data.

Asset management and lifecycle planning

Demonstrating knowledge of asset registers, condition surveys, lifecycle replacement, digital reporting tools, and how your approach reduces whole-life cost.

Environmental sustainability and energy efficiency

Heat pump expertise, low-carbon installations, LED upgrades, smart controls, BMS optimisation and energy reduction strategies aligned with local authority net-zero goals.

Social value outcomes aligned to M&E operations

Apprenticeships, STEM initiatives, local supplier engagement, training pathways, carbon reduction, and community support programmes.

Missing detail in any of these areas can result in significant lost marks even if your operational capability is excellent.
