Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council commissioned mechanical small works across four adult care properties: Willow Court Nursing Care Home, Marlfield Residential Care Unit in Alton, Westholme Residential Care Home and Nursing Care Home in Winchester, and Forest Court Nursing Care Home in Calmore. The work covered replacing a hot-water service circulating pump at Willow Court, a variable-temperature pump set at Marlfield, and hot-water service heaters at both Westholme and Forest Court. This is mechanical engineering installation work, involving equipment replacement in occupied care settings. The works were intended to be carried out during normal working hours, with minimal shutdown required. Delivery spans Hampshire locations, including Alton, Winchester and Calmore, and is relevant to mechanical contractors serving public-sector care and residential properties.

The procurement has been completed and awarded under a framework, using a selective below-threshold route without a competitive call-off. One lot was awarded to Simer Environmental Services Limited. The contract was signed on 7 August 2026, runs from 24 August 2026 to 11 September 2026, and is valued at £24,210 excluding VAT, or £29,052 including VAT. The requirement was assessed as works and the award is active. The buyer’s stated scope was a short programme of pump-set and heater replacements across four care properties, with works planned during normal working hours and minimal shutdown. The procurement was not above the applicable threshold. This outcome shows the council used its existing framework route for a defined package of mechanical maintenance and installation works.

This award is most relevant to mechanical engineering contractors able to replace hot-water service pumps, variable-temperature pump sets and heaters in operational care homes. Credible suppliers would need practical experience of planned mechanical works in occupied residential or healthcare environments, where service continuity and tightly controlled shutdowns matter. The requirement favours firms that can coordinate several sites, work during normal hours, manage safe isolation and reinstatement, and complete straightforward equipment replacement with limited disruption to residents and staff. A supplier operating at small or medium-enterprise scale can compete through a framework route for this type of focused package. Businesses with a track record in public-sector property maintenance, responsive coordination and reliable completion of small mechanical installations would be well placed for comparable requirements from Hampshire County Council.
