Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Lincolnshire procured chilled water coolers for use across multiple sites. The requirement is a services contract covering the provision of water coolers, with extension periods included. Delivery is associated with the buyer’s sites in the Lincoln area. The procurement was made through the ESPO framework, reference 900-22, rather than as a standalone purchase. The relevant product category is water coolers (CPV 31141000). This opportunity is therefore relevant to suppliers that provide chilled drinking-water equipment and can support a multi-site public-sector customer. It is not a construction, facilities-management or general catering requirement; the defined service concerns chilled water coolers.

This procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded to Cooleraid Ltd on 26 July 2022 for £35,842.20 including the stated contract value. The contract period runs from 1 October 2022 to 30 September 2027. The original tender submission deadline was 31 August 2022. The buyer recorded the requirement as a services procurement for multiple sites, with extension periods included in the scope. The procurement was not identified as suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises. Cooleraid Ltd is the selected supplier, and the award remains active.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award shows that the Police and Crime Commissioner for Lincolnshire buys chilled water coolers through a framework route for use across multiple sites. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need an established supply capability for chilled drinking-water equipment, the operational capacity to serve several locations, and the administrative readiness to compete through a framework call-off rather than only through an open standalone tender. The buyer’s use of extension periods indicates that continuity of supply and support over a sustained service relationship matter. The recorded suitability assessment points towards a larger, established supplier profile rather than a small or voluntary-sector provider.
