Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Lewisham procured works to replace the boiler at Old Town Hall. The requirement is a construction project focused on boiler replacement and associated building-services work, rather than the supply of standalone equipment. Delivery is in Lewisham, London, for the council’s Old Town Hall facility. The buying organisation is the London Borough of Lewisham, a public authority. The awarded supplier, Control Electrical Engineers Ltd, is based in London and is classified as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The procurement therefore concerns local-authority building-services and mechanical or electrical engineering capability applied to a specific public building, with the work located within the London Borough of Lewisham.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a below-threshold limited competition procedure, with one lot. Two bids were received at the final stage, both from SMEs. The contract was awarded to Control Electrical Engineers Ltd on 14 August 2026. The awarded value is £585,800 excluding VAT, or £702,960 including VAT. The contract period is 7 October 2026 to 30 October 2026. The award covers construction work for the Old Town Hall boiler replacement. The award is active, and a contract signature milestone was scheduled for 17 August 2026. No separate evaluation weighting or award-criteria detail is published in the procurement information.

This award demonstrates demand from the London Borough of Lewisham for specialist boiler-replacement works in a public building, delivered through a below-threshold limited competition. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in commercial or public-sector boiler replacement, building-services construction and the associated electrical engineering work needed to complete the installation safely and operationally. The short delivery window indicates a need for strong mobilisation, coordinated site working and sufficient labour and subcontractor capacity to complete works in an occupied or operational public-building environment, where relevant. Experience delivering comparable refurbishment or plant-replacement projects for councils or other public bodies would help demonstrate reliability, safety management and the ability to work within a defined programme.
