Summary of the contracting process

Trinity House procured the supply, installation and commissioning of a compressor at its Swansea Depot. This is a goods requirement for an operational compressor, including the associated installation and commissioning work needed to put the equipment into service. The buying organisation is Trinity House, a central government public authority responsible for lighthouse and other maritime safety services. Delivery and on-site activity are centred on Swansea, at Trinity House’s depot. The procurement was arranged as a single requirement rather than a package of separately described lots. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are compressor manufacturers, industrial equipment suppliers, mechanical engineering contractors and specialist installation teams able to provide the equipment and complete its commissioning at the depot. The relevant classification is CPV 42123000, compressors.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One supplier, SERVAIR LIMITED, was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 4 August 2026 and runs from 20 September 2026 to 6 October 2026. Its value is £31,413 excluding VAT, or £37,695.60 including VAT. The resulting contract is active. The published procurement data identifies the requirement as a compressor supply, installation and commissioning service, with delivery at Trinity House’s Swansea Depot. The process used a limited procurement method rather than an open competition. The award is active and the contract is recorded as active, so the outcome is an awarded and contracted requirement rather than an opportunity awaiting evaluation.

This award shows Trinity House’s demand for a complete industrial compressor solution at its Swansea operations, combining equipment supply with installation and commissioning rather than a product-only purchase. A credible future competitor would therefore need access to suitable compressor equipment, the engineering capability to install it safely at an operational depot, and the practical expertise to commission and hand over a functioning system. Suppliers able to manage the equipment, site work and commissioning as one coordinated package would be well placed. SERVAIR LIMITED is identified as an SME supplier, indicating that the requirement was deliverable by a smaller specialist business. Compressor distributors, mechanical engineering firms and facilities or plant-equipment specialists with relevant installation experience should monitor similar Trinity House requirements.
