Summary of the contracting process

The City of Liverpool College procured the installation of a wood dust extraction system providing local exhaust ventilation. The purpose is to reduce staff exposure to hazardous substances generated by wood-related activity. This is an installation services requirement, covering the supply and fitting of equipment needed to capture and remove wood dust at source. The work is for the college and is to be delivered in Liverpool. It will suit businesses specialising in industrial ventilation, dust extraction, local exhaust ventilation, workshop safety systems or related mechanical installation services. The requirement is focused on a practical site installation rather than general facilities management, equipment supply alone or consultancy without installation capability.

The procurement has been awarded following a direct below-threshold procedure without competition. The tender is complete and one supplier was selected: IMPACT TECHNICAL SERVICES LTD. The award date is 22 July 2026. The award value is £95,000 excluding VAT, or £114,000 including VAT. The contract period runs from 22 July 2026 to 31 August 2026, giving a short installation programme. The procurement contained one lot covering the complete wood dust extraction installation. The stated basis for the purchase was the need to reduce staff exposure to hazardous substances through local exhaust ventilation. A future contract signature milestone was scheduled for 22 July 2026.

This award is useful market evidence for contractors delivering specialist dust extraction and local exhaust ventilation installations in further-education workshop environments. A credible future competitor would need to assess site requirements, design or configure an effective wood dust capture system, install the equipment safely and complete commissioning within a tightly defined programme. Relevant experience in industrial ventilation, woodworking environments, hazardous-substance controls and compliance-focused installation would strengthen a supplier’s position. Businesses should also be able to manage a complete installation rather than only provide individual components, and demonstrate reliable delivery for a public college setting. The buyer’s requirement indicates demand for practical measures that protect staff from airborne wood dust.
