Summary of the contracting process

Teignbridge District Council procured a building-services maintenance contract covering heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) servicing and maintenance, together with ad hoc reactive work requested through call-offs. The requirement is for services to repair and maintain building installations for the council. The procurement is a single service requirement rather than a multi-lot programme. Delivery is associated with the council’s area in the South West of England. The selected supplier, G S ENGINEERING (UK) LIMITED, is based in Paignton and is classified as a small or medium-sized enterprise. This opportunity is relevant to HVAC contractors able to provide planned maintenance and respond to unplanned building-services faults under a term contract.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a below-threshold open competition. The enquiry deadline was 13 February 2026 and the tender deadline was 20 February 2026. Price carried 70% of the evaluation and quality 30%. Six bids reached the final stage, all from SMEs. G S ENGINEERING (UK) LIMITED was awarded the contract on 9 April 2026. The contract was signed on 13 August 2026 and is active from 14 August 2026 to 31 March 2028. Its value is £120,000 excluding VAT (£144,000 including VAT). The council may extend it year by year for up to three further years, with a maximum end date of 31 March 2031.

This award demonstrates demand from Teignbridge District Council for an integrated HVAC maintenance service that combines planned servicing with call-off reactive response. A credible future competitor would need the practical capability to maintain and repair building heating, ventilation and air-conditioning installations, manage routine work reliably and mobilise quickly when faults arise. The requirement also shows that quality matters alongside price, so suppliers would need to evidence sound service methods, competent engineers, responsive customer handling and effective work management rather than compete on cost alone. The successful business is an SME, and all six final-stage bidders were SMEs, indicating that specialist smaller contractors can compete for this type of council building-services requirement.
