Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council procured mechanical and building installation works for Springwood Infant School in Hampshire. The requirement covered improvements to the existing school hall’s ventilation and comfort cooling: three new wall-mounted comfort cooling units, one external unit and two high-level destratification fans. It also included all associated works, controls and building works in connection with the installation. The procurement was for works rather than goods or standalone consultancy, with the activity delivered at the school in Hampshire. This is a focused building-services requirement involving mechanical engineering installation within an operational education setting, and would be relevant to contractors delivering school ventilation, cooling, controls and associated installation works.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a competitive selective process under a framework, using a below-threshold award route. There was one completed lot. Hampshire County Council awarded the contract to MKG Building Services Ltd. The contract was signed on 28 July 2026 and runs from 17 August 2026 to 4 September 2026. Its value is £30,770 excluding VAT and £36,924 including VAT. The award covers the mechanical installation works described, including the cooling units, external unit, destratification fans, controls and associated building works. The published outcome identifies the successful supplier and an active contract, providing a clear example of the council’s use of a framework for a small, time-limited school building-services project.

This procurement indicates demand from Hampshire County Council for specialist mechanical building-services contractors able to deliver ventilation and comfort-cooling improvements in schools. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need practical experience installing wall-mounted and external cooling equipment, high-level destratification fans, control systems and the associated building works needed to complete the installation. The successful supplier was a small or medium-sized business, showing that this scale of council requirement can suit an SME with relevant technical capability and delivery capacity. Experience working safely and efficiently in an education environment would strengthen a supplier’s position, particularly where installation work must be coordinated around existing school buildings and services.
