Summary of the contracting process

St Helens Council procured boiler and gas servicing for equipment across its premises in the St Helens area. The requirement covers routine servicing, repair and maintenance of boilers, gas appliances and associated machinery, helping maintain safe and functional heating and gas systems. It is a public-sector facilities maintenance service, classified under repair and maintenance services of machinery. The work is delivered within the United Kingdom, with the tender identifying the North West delivery area. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The selected supplier is electrical & combustion (NW), an SME based in St Helens, indicating a requirement that can be delivered by a specialist local or regional gas and heating maintenance business.

The procurement has been completed through an above-threshold open procedure. The tender closed on 2 February 2026 at 12:00 UTC, and the evaluation period was due to end on 2 March 2026. One lot was awarded to electrical & combustion (NW). The tender estimated value was £250,000 excluding VAT, or £300,000 including VAT. The resulting contract was signed on 24 August 2026 and is valued at £153,256.01 excluding VAT, or £183,907.21 including VAT. Its contract period runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2029, with two possible 12-month extensions at the council’s discretion, allowing a maximum period to 31 March 2031. Evaluation weighted cost at 65% and quality at 35%.

This requirement is relevant to specialist heating, gas and combustion engineering contractors able to service and repair boilers and gas equipment across a council property portfolio. A credible future supplier would need the technical competence, qualified personnel, maintenance systems and capacity to provide planned servicing and responsive repairs safely across multiple premises. Businesses should be able to evidence reliable compliance with gas-safety obligations, effective scheduling, fault diagnosis, record keeping and clear communication with a public-sector client. The award to an SME shows that the work can be delivered by a focused small or medium-sized provider rather than only a large national facilities-management company. Experience maintaining council, housing, education or other public buildings would strengthen a comparable future proposition.
