Summary of the contracting process

Reserve Forces’ and Cadets’ Associations of Greater London is procuring works to replace the central heating boiler plant and associated equipment at Army Reserve Centre, Honeycroft Hill, Uxbridge. The site includes offices, a large hall, Officers’ Mess, bar and other associated spaces served by a roof-space plant room. The existing installation comprises three Hamworthy Wessex 50 gas-fired boilers, a gas-fired hot-water storage heater, a hot-water storage vessel, pumps, expansion vessels, controls and flue routes. The works include new communal boilers and replacement pumps, connection to the existing gas supply, a new gas solenoid valve and a plant-room fire safety system. Delivery is at the Uxbridge Army Reserve Centre in London.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition, by invitation only, with electronic submission allowed. Questions and offers were due by 18 August 2026 at 12:00 noon. The estimated value is £160,000 excluding VAT, or £192,000 including VAT. The planned contract period runs from 24 August 2026 to 30 October 2026, with a possible extension until 31 December 2026. There is one lot, suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Evaluation is based on quality, with the detailed requirements and weighting set out in the tender documents. Renewal may be used if further critical locations require the same scope of work.

This opportunity suits mechanical and building-services contractors experienced in commercial or public-sector heating plant replacement. Relevant capability includes removing and replacing gas-fired boilers, installing communal heating equipment, replacing pumps and associated plant-room components, and integrating controls, expansion vessels and hot-water systems. Suppliers should be able to work safely within an occupied Army Reserve Centre containing offices, assembly and hospitality spaces, while managing roof-space plant-room access and existing flue and gas arrangements. Experience of installing gas solenoid valves and plant-room fire safety systems is directly relevant. The requirement is identified as suitable for SMEs, making it potentially appropriate for an established specialist installer or a contractor with suitable delivery partners.
