UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Kent County Council procured the replacement of failed oil boilers at St Mark’s Church of England Primary School. The work covers supplying and installing new oil boilers, together with associated mechanical equipment installation services. The requirement is a school boiler replacement project rather than a general facilities-management contract. The buyer is a sub-central public authority responsible for the procurement and the school requirement. The selected supplier was GJM Southern Group Limited, an SME based in Higham, Rochester, Kent. This opportunity is relevant to businesses that install oil-fired boilers and mechanical plant, particularly contractors able to undertake replacement works in an operational primary-school setting and coordinate the installation of new equipment as a complete project.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to GJM Southern Group Limited for the single lot. It used a competitive tender and was classified as below threshold, with the specific procurement method recorded as unknown. The contract was signed on 13 August 2026 and runs from 16 August 2026 to 31 October 2026. Its value is £105,142 excluding VAT, or £126,170.40 including VAT. The contract is active. The award covers installation services for mechanical equipment, specifically the boiler replacement requirement at St Mark’s Church of England Primary School. The outcome shows that one supplier was selected for the complete requirement rather than separate awards across multiple lots.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Kent County Council for specialist replacement of failed oil boilers in a primary-school environment. A supplier competing when a similar requirement returns would need practical capability in oil boiler replacement, mechanical equipment installation and delivering the associated works as one coordinated package. The successful business was an SME, indicating that the requirement was deliverable by a specialist smaller contractor rather than only a national construction or facilities-management company. Relevant experience should include surveying failed or ageing boiler systems, planning safe removal and installation, managing site activity in a school setting and commissioning replacement equipment. Businesses with this focused mechanical-services capability can use the requirement as a benchmark for the buyer’s expected project scale and procurement route.
