Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

North Lincolnshire Council commissioned Phase 1 mechanical services installation at Bottesford Junior School. The requirement is classified as building construction work and concerns works rather than goods or general consultancy. Delivery is at the school in Bottesford, within North Lincolnshire, with the council based in Scunthorpe. The scope is described as mechanical services installation for the first phase of works at the junior school. This is a local-authority construction requirement focused on mechanical building services within an education setting, so it is relevant to contractors delivering school or public-building mechanical installation projects in the North Lincolnshire area.

The procurement used a selective restricted procedure under the GPA. The tender reached complete status and the award is active. The requirement was awarded to F R Townsend, an SME based in Grimsby, for £121,477. The contract was signed on 10 July 2026. One bid was recorded. Evaluation was based on quality worth 40% and price worth 60%. The single lot is recorded as cancelled, while the associated award and contract are active. The opportunity therefore has an awarded outcome rather than being a requirement seeking bids. The award relates to the Phase 1 mechanical services installation at Bottesford Junior School; no contract duration is stated in the procurement outcome.

This award provides a useful benchmark for mechanical services contractors serving local-authority education projects in North Lincolnshire. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need practical capability to install mechanical building services in an occupied or operational school environment, manage phased works and deliver reliably within a public-sector construction programme. The evaluation shows that technical quality mattered substantially alongside price, so suppliers would need evidence of workmanship, planning, site coordination, health and safety control and dependable delivery, not just a competitive quotation. Local or regional SMEs with relevant school, public-building or similar mechanical installation experience are particularly well placed to compete through a restricted procedure.
