Summary of the contracting process

Capital City College procured heating, ventilation and air-conditioning maintenance and installation services for its estate in London. The work covers planned preventative maintenance across the College’s sites and buildings, surveys of its heating and cooling assets, call-outs, remedial repairs and installation work. The contract also allows for additional work arising from changes to the estate or its equipment. The requirement spans heating and ventilation as well as air conditioning, including associated mechanical and electrical building systems. It was divided into two lots: heating and ventilation, and air conditioning. The selected supplier’s award relates to the heating and ventilation lot; the recorded contract scope also describes HVAC maintenance and repair services.

The procurement is awarded and the contract is active. BTU (Installation and Maintenance) Ltd was selected for the heating and ventilation lot; the award was made on 20 March 2026 and the contract was signed on 30 July 2026. The contract value is £4.2 million including VAT. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 March 2029, with options for two annual extensions, subject to performance and agreement of rates, extending the maximum period to 31 March 2031. The selective competitive flexible procedure used a shortlist followed by interviews. Evaluation was weighted 60% quality and 40% price. Bids were due by 17 December 2025, and clarification questions by 28 November 2025. The two lots were each estimated at £1.75 million excluding VAT; both were marked suitable for SMEs.

This award demonstrates demand from Capital City College for a supplier able to maintain and repair heating, ventilation and air-conditioning assets across a multi-site estate, respond to call-outs, survey equipment and deliver installation work. A credible competitor at a future procurement would need practical capacity across both planned maintenance and reactive repairs, together with the technical ability to work on heating, boilers, ventilation and cooling systems and undertake related electrical and mechanical building-services work. The scope also calls for flexibility as the College’s estate and asset list change, including adapting to sustainability or other College strategies and delivering additional installations when required. The route used a competitive flexible process with shortlisting and interviews, and the evaluation favoured quality over price, so suppliers should be able to evidence service quality as well as competitive pricing.
