Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of the West of England bought replacement of a gas pressure-reducing valve at Glenside Campus. This is gas infrastructure work, classified under gas supply mains construction, although the procurement is categorised as a service. The delivery location is Glenside Campus in the South West of England. The requirement is focused on replacing the pressure-reducing valve rather than a wider gas network project.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Shield Mechanical & Electrical Services Limited. The award date was 24 August 2026, and the contract period runs from 25 to 26 August 2026. The awarded value was £75,963.76. The competition used a limited procedure through competitive quotations below the applicable threshold. Quotations were due by 24 August 2026 at 5pm. The tender’s estimated value was also £75,963.76. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses. No evaluation criteria or scoring basis are recorded in the process information.

This award shows that the University of the West of England buys focused gas pressure-reducing valve replacement work at its Glenside Campus, using a competitive quotation route below threshold. The selected supplier, Shield Mechanical & Electrical Services Limited, is a small or medium-sized mechanical and electrical services business. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need practical capability to replace gas pressure-regulating equipment and deliver the associated gas infrastructure work. The procurement indicates that smaller businesses were considered suitable, so this type of requirement is not necessarily confined to large contractors. The evidence is specific to valve replacement for this buyer; it does not establish further technical qualifications or capacity requirements.
