Summary of the contracting process

Wigan Council procured works to replace the boiler plant at Wigan Town Hall in Wigan, England. The scope covers removal and replacement of existing boilers and the flue system, installation of new boiler modules and a new gas safety system, and modifications to the building management system (BMS) and flue arrangements. This is a mechanical installation project, classified under CPV 45350000, and is categorised as works rather than goods or services. Delivery is at the town hall, with the buyer based at Town Hall, Library Street, Wigan. The requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), making it relevant to specialist heating, plumbing, mechanical services and building systems contractors with the capability to deliver coordinated plant replacement works.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a tender process using the buyer’s stated ‘Other’ procurement method. The submission deadline was 10 August 2026 at 12:00. Wigan Council awarded the contract to CPL Heating and Plumbing Ltd on 18 August 2026 for £131,937 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 2 September 2026 to 7 October 2026. The estimated procurement value was between £100,000 and £131,937. The award is active, and the selected supplier is identified as an SME. The requirement was evaluated through the tender process, but the published information does not set out the award criteria or their weighting. There are no lots or separate awards recorded.

Although this contract has already been awarded, it provides a clear example of Wigan Council’s demand for planned mechanical building-services work at a civic property. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need to manage boiler plant replacement from existing-system removal through installation, commissioning and integration. Relevant capability includes designing or installing modular boiler systems, adapting flues, implementing gas safety arrangements and modifying building management system controls. Contractors should be able to coordinate several connected mechanical and controls workstreams within a short, defined programme and work safely in an operational public building. The requirement’s SME suitability indicates that a focused specialist contractor, rather than only a large national provider, can be well placed where it has the necessary technical capacity, project management and comparable public or commercial-building experience.
