Summary of the contracting process

The contract awarded by St Helens Council involves the replacement of the boiler at Abbeyford Children's Centre, located in the UK region of St Helens. As part of the procurement process initiated by tender, MX Plumbing and Heating Limited was selected as the supplier, with the award status noted as active as of 27th April 2026. This project falls under the works industry category with a focus on boiler installations and related work, valued at £27,882.95 excluding VAT. The procurement method used was limited competition, a strategy applied for purchases below the established threshold, and the contract period spans from 5th May 2026 to 20th May 2026. The contract was signed on the 10th of March 2026, marking the official start of this procurement cycle.

This tender presents significant opportunities for SMEs specialising in plumbing and heating services, particularly those experienced in boiler installations and maintenance. The targeted competition method facilitates higher chances for smaller businesses to engage with local government contracts, fostering growth and the expansion of their portfolios. Companies that offer tailored solutions for public or community service buildings are particularly well-suited to compete for projects like this, given the procurement's focus on infrastructure improvement in public sector facilities. Engaging in such contracts can not only increase revenue streams but also enhance reputations within this competitive market.
