Summary of the contracting process

Telford and Wrekin Council procured gas soundness testing at various council sites in Telford and Wrekin. The requirement is classified as construction work and concerns works to test gas installations for soundness, supporting the safe operation and ongoing management of the council’s sites. The buyer is Telford and Wrekin Council, based in Telford, Shropshire. Delivery is associated with the council’s locations in the United Kingdom, with the requirement specifically described as covering various Telford and Wrekin sites. This is a specialist gas-testing and compliance-related works requirement rather than a general construction project, and is relevant to contractors able to undertake gas soundness testing across multiple public-sector premises.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a restricted procedure. Bids were due by 31 July 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded to Phoenix Gas Services on 20 August 2026. The award covers the period from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030. The recorded awarded value is £0. The contract is a works requirement for gas soundness testing at various Telford and Wrekin sites. The published outcome identifies one active award and one supplier. The opportunity was assessed through a selective route, with participation limited to suppliers invited to the restricted procedure. The contract period is three years, providing an indication of the planned duration of the council’s testing requirement.

This award demonstrates a defined council requirement for gas soundness testing across multiple sites over a sustained service period. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in gas soundness testing, the personnel and equipment to visit and test installations at different premises, and the operational capacity to manage a multi-site council contract. Experience of documenting testing activity clearly and working safely in occupied or operational public buildings would strengthen a supplier’s position, where relevant to the technical specification. The buyer’s use of a restricted procedure also indicates that suppliers may need to demonstrate suitable technical competence and organisational capability before being invited to submit a tender. The requirement is not identified as suitable for SMEs or VCSEs.
