Summary of the contracting process

Sunderland City Council commissioned works to install a new building management system (BMS) as part of the boiler house replacement project at Ryhope Juniors School and Ryhope Infant Academy School in Sunderland. The requirement covers boiler-related installation work, classified under CPV 45331110, and is intended to support the replacement boiler houses at both schools. The council is the buying organisation and the work is delivered at two education sites within its area. This opportunity is therefore relevant to building services contractors, controls specialists and mechanical or electrical firms able to install and integrate BMS equipment in operational school buildings and alongside boiler house infrastructure.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. One lot was awarded to E.ON Control Solutions Limited, an SME. The award is active and the contract was signed on 24 July 2026. The contract runs from 24 July 2026 to 28 August 2026. Its value is £28,974 excluding VAT, or £34,768 including VAT. The evaluation route was direct award rather than a competitive tender, under the legal basis recorded as the Procurement Act 2023. The contract covers the BMS installation works associated with the boiler house replacement project at the two Ryhope schools.

For suppliers that did not win this requirement, the procurement indicates a defined market for relatively small, focused BMS installation projects linked to boiler house replacement in schools. A credible competitor would need practical expertise in building management and boiler control systems, together with the capacity to complete installation and integration work across two education sites within a short delivery programme. Experience working safely in school buildings, coordinating with site staff and managing works around operational premises would strengthen a future response. The selected supplier’s SME status also shows that the requirement can suit a smaller specialist controls or building services business, rather than only a large national contractor. Firms should be able to demonstrate relevant completed installations and reliable delivery of school-based mechanical and controls works.
