Summary of the contracting process

Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust has completed a direct award procurement to ICS Cool Energy Limited for the service maintenance of ICS water chillers. The contract, valued at £156,829 gross, encompasses maintenance, repair, and support services for the air source heat pumps and chiller plant across the Trust's estate, located in Hull, regions UKE11 and UKE12 in the United Kingdom. This procurement stage is at 'Award' and the contract was signed on 30th June 2026, with the period of service commencing from 1st July 2026 to 31st August 2027. The direct award was justified as ICS Cool Energy Ltd are the original equipment manufacturers (OEM) and possess the necessary proprietary parts and technical expertise, making it difficult for any alternative suppliers to fulfill the required services without reliance on the OEM.

This tender presents business growth opportunities, particularly for firms dealing in repair and maintenance services within the industrial cooling sector. Though the direct award limits competition, the necessity for OEM-specific knowledge and components highlights potential consultancy roles for other businesses to assist in similar procurements or provide complementary services. Companies specializing in OEM partnerships, technical consultancy, and support related to energy-efficient systems would find this sector particularly beneficial, broadening their portfolio by engaging in public health infrastructure projects.
