Summary of the contracting process

The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust procured works to replace a chiller coil serving an MRI system. The requirement covers the installation of cooling equipment associated with the MRI chiller, making it relevant to mechanical and building-services contractors with specialist refrigeration, chilled-water or healthcare cooling capability. The buyer is based at Clatterbridge Road, Bebington, Wirral. The awarded delivery scope covered locations across England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. This is a single requirement for the Trust’s MRI chiller coil replacement rather than a wider facilities-management service or a multi-lot programme.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded directly without competition because it was below threshold. VINCI CONSTRUCTION UK LIMITED received the award on 24 July 2026. The contract was signed on 24 July 2026 and runs from 27 July 2026 to 21 August 2026. Its value is £13,896.43 excluding VAT, or £16,675.72 including VAT. The award is active and covers the completed single lot. Evaluation details are not set out beyond the direct-award route, so this outcome reflects a selected supplier rather than a competitive tender involving multiple bids. The short contract period indicates a focused installation and replacement project rather than ongoing maintenance or a long-term service arrangement.

This award indicates a defined requirement for specialist cooling-equipment installation supporting an MRI environment at a cancer centre. Competitors seeking similar work from this buyer would need practical capability in chiller coil replacement and associated mechanical installation, with sufficient technical resource to complete a focused works package within a short delivery window. Relevant firms are likely to be established mechanical, refrigeration, HVAC or facilities contractors able to work on cooling systems used in healthcare settings and to coordinate safely around sensitive diagnostic equipment. The awarded supplier was a large construction business, suggesting that broader construction or facilities capability can support credibility, although the requirement itself is narrowly focused. The opportunity is therefore most relevant to contractors combining specialist cooling expertise with dependable project delivery.
