Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Leicestershire bought air-conditioning replacement services for EMSOU. The work falls within general building and facilities services and involves replacing air-conditioning equipment rather than supplying standalone goods. EMSOU is the named operational site, with delivery locations covering areas across England. The buying organisation is based in Leicester. The requirement was treated as a single lot and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The procurement therefore concerns specialist building-services work for a public-sector operational facility, with a geographically broad delivery scope despite the buyer and named site being in Leicestershire.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct award for continuity of the air-conditioning systems. PWP BUILDING SERVICES LIMITED was selected on 10 July 2026. The contract was signed on 31 July 2026 and is active from 1 August to 30 September 2026. Its value is £206,045 excluding VAT, or £247,254 including VAT. The award and contract are above the relevant threshold. The evaluation route was the direct-award decision and its stated rationale of maintaining continuity of the air-conditioning systems. There was one completed lot, covering the full replacement requirement. The contract is with PWP BUILDING SERVICES LIMITED, an SME based in Nottingham.

This award demonstrates demand from the Police and Crime Commissioner for Leicestershire for substantial air-conditioning replacement at an operational public-sector facility. Suppliers considering similar work for this buyer would need practical capability in air-conditioning replacement and broader building-services delivery, together with the capacity to complete a defined project across a short implementation window. The direct-award rationale shows that continuity of existing systems and service arrangements was important in the selection decision. A credible competitor for a future requirement would therefore need to evidence reliable delivery, familiarity with installed air-conditioning systems or a strong transition plan, and the ability to manage specialist works in secure or operational premises. The opportunity was considered suitable for SMEs and VCSEs.
