UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council commissioned works to design and construct replacement gas-fired boiler plant at The Blue Coat School in Basingstoke, formerly known as Aldworth School. The requirement covers the Portsmouth Block and is a mechanical engineering installation project. The council is the public-sector buyer and the work is associated with the school’s building services infrastructure. The scope is therefore relevant to mechanical and building-services contractors able to undertake boiler replacement schemes, including design, construction, installation and associated coordination. Businesses with experience in commercial or education-sector heating plant upgrades would find the requirement most closely aligned with their capabilities.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a competitive selective process under a framework, using a below-threshold framework award route. The contract was signed on 3 August 2026 and awarded to MKG Building Services Ltd, a Fareham-based supplier. The award covers one lot. The contract value is £283,895 excluding VAT, or £340,674 including VAT. The contract period runs from 24 August 2026 to 30 October 2026. The published outcome identifies the work as mechanical engineering installation works. The selected supplier is responsible for the replacement boiler scheme at The Blue Coat School, Basingstoke.

This award demonstrates Hampshire County Council’s demand for specialist building-services works involving the design and construction of replacement gas-fired boiler plant in a school setting. A credible future competitor would need the technical capability to design and install commercial heating systems, manage boiler replacement works within an existing building and coordinate construction activities around an education environment. The requirement also indicates that suppliers can reach the council through a competitive framework route and that an SME-sized building-services business can be selected for a focused installation project. Contractors combining mechanical engineering installation expertise with practical delivery experience in schools or similar occupied public buildings would be best placed to compete when comparable work returns.
