Summary of the contracting process

West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Authority procured consultancy for the initial design of a boiler upgrade scheme across various fire stations in West Yorkshire. The work falls within heating engineering services for buildings and is intended to support the replacement or upgrading of existing boiler systems. The appointed consultant’s role is focused on early design activity rather than the physical installation works. This is a public-sector building-services consultancy requirement for organisations able to assess heating infrastructure and develop designs suitable for multiple operational fire-station sites. The buyer is West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Authority, based at its headquarters in Birkenshaw. The requirement is relevant to building-services engineering consultancies, heating-system designers and specialist energy or mechanical engineering firms with the capability to work across fire and rescue facilities.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded through the PAGABO Professional Services 2024 Schedule 4 NEC4 PSC Framework, using a direct award without prior publication of a competition. Eight framework suppliers expressed interest, after which JCP Consulting Engineers Ltd was selected. The stated evaluation considered supplier suitability, proposed fees and value for money; price was the criterion recorded for the lot. The contract is active, was signed on 1 August 2026, and is valued at £36,345.89. The requirement was organised as one lot, although that lot is recorded as cancelled while the associated award and contract are active. No contract end date or separate award date is recorded. The work is covered by the GPA.

This award demonstrates demand from West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Authority for specialist consultancy to design boiler upgrades across a geographically dispersed estate of operational fire stations. A credible future competitor would need heating engineering and building-services design capability, with the capacity to assess several sites and produce coordinated initial designs. Local or regionally based delivery is commercially relevant: the authority specifically valued efficient attendance at its sites, reduced travel costs and shorter response times. Suppliers would also need to operate within, or gain access to, an appropriate professional-services framework and provide fees that withstand value-for-money assessment. The process attracted eight interested framework suppliers and was awarded to an SME, showing that a smaller specialist consultancy can satisfy the requirement when it combines technical suitability, practical site coverage and competitive pricing.
