Summary of the contracting process

Milton Keynes City Council, located at the Civic Offices, 1 Saxon Gate East, Milton Keynes, has completed an open tender process for the upgrade of Plant Rooms 1 & 3 at Wavendon Gate School. The procurement, under the category of works, was concluded with a contract award on 23 July 2025, and is set to end by 29 August 2026. The procurement process followed an open competition method and was categorized as below threshold, focusing on heating works and equipment. The formal submission deadline was 30 May 2025, ensuring a thorough competition among interested suppliers. This contract was legally based on UKPGA 2023/54 regulations.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in the heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning sectors, particularly those specializing in heating equipment and installation works. SME companies, like OAKRAY LIMITED, which was awarded the contract, find this kind of procurement advantageous as it aligns with smaller-scale business operations and capacity. The high emphasis on price and quality in award criteria means businesses that can deliver reliable and cost-effective solutions have a promising stance to compete and secure contracts conducive to their growth. This procurement process accentuates the potential for increasing market presence and establishing long-term relationships with local government bodies.
