Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice procured works to replace the chiller at HMCTS Huntingdon Law Courts. This is a court-building works requirement, including the removal and replacement of equipment needed to support the court building’s operation. The procurement is associated with the East of England and London, with Huntingdon Law Courts identified in the contract title. The buyer is the Ministry of Justice, a national public-sector organisation responsible for justice services and associated estates. The opportunity is relevant to building-services contractors, mechanical and electrical firms, and specialists in commercial chiller replacement and associated building works. It may also suit small and medium-sized enterprises, which the procurement identifies as suitable participants. The requirement is specific to court-estate infrastructure rather than general construction or routine facilities management.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded on 24 August 2026 to Galliford Try Construction UK Limited for £1,837,726 in GBP. The contract period runs from 24 August 2026 to 23 August 2027. The original tender value was estimated at £1,837,726.18 in GBP, and the tender submission deadline was 18 February 2026 at 16:00 UTC. The procurement was classified as works, with the stated classification relating to court-building construction work. One supplier is recorded as the award recipient. The award is active and the tender status is complete, so this procurement represents an established contract outcome rather than an opportunity for new bids on this requirement.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates Ministry of Justice demand for substantial, specialist chiller-replacement works within its court estate. A credible future competitor would need the technical capability to plan and deliver commercial cooling-system replacement in an operational justice-building environment, together with the construction, mechanical and electrical coordination needed for associated works. Experience of working safely around public-sector buildings, managing constrained sites and maintaining reliable building operation would be commercially relevant to this requirement. The route to market is also significant: the buyer used a selective call-off from a framework agreement, so suppliers seeking comparable work would need access to an appropriate framework and the capacity to deliver a sizeable project across the recorded East of England and London locations. The procurement is identified as suitable for SMEs.
