The procurement was initiated as a tender on 6th May 2026, with the award process completed by 15th July 2026.

This procurement presents substantial opportunities for businesses focused on HVAC systems, predominantly those specialising in maintenance and service offerings. SME's, particularly within the engineering and maintenance sectors, are well-suited to engage with similar future tenders, given the Council's preference for open procedures that often encourage competitive participation from small and medium enterprises. With the procurement method being open, it allowed for a fair competition amplified by the weight given to price, technical quality, and social value. Businesses that can deliver high quality and cost-effective solutions, with additional focus on social value, can enhance their standing and growth potential in public sector contracts.
