Summary of the contracting process

Powys Teaching Health Board procured boiler replacement works at Llanidloes War Memorial Hospital. The project replaces end-of-life, unreliable Hamworthy Bradstone boilers with high-efficiency models to provide dependable heating and reduce energy use and maintenance call-outs. The work also covers local gas-pipe and electrical alterations to fit the new boiler layout, plus installation of a gas solenoid valve to improve safety. Delivery is at the hospital in Llanidloes, Wales. The requirement arose because two existing boilers were non-functional and further failures could affect safe operation, particularly in cold weather. This is a building-services project for contractors able to replace commercial heating plant and carry out the associated gas and electrical modifications.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Boiler Burner Maintenance Limited, with the contract signed on 7 July 2026. The contract value is £91,835.11. The requirement was procured as a single package through the Welsh Procurement Alliance’s Dynamic Purchasing System, using a direct call-off without further competition under the framework arrangements. The buyer states that the framework permitted supplier selection without reopening competition. The award basis was price. Two bids were recorded, both from SMEs. The project description intended the installation to be completed during the summer to avoid the cost and disruption of temporary heating; no contract start or end dates are stated in the process data.

For firms targeting future hospital heating upgrades for Powys Teaching Health Board, this award indicates demand for replacement of ageing boiler plant where reliability, safe site operation and energy efficiency are important. A credible competitor would need experience replacing commercial boilers in an operational healthcare building, planning installation to limit disruption, and delivering the associated gas-pipe and electrical alterations and safety controls. The work suits an SME-scale building-services or heating contractor able to manage the installation as a coordinated package. The buyer used its Welsh Procurement Alliance Dynamic Purchasing System and made this award by direct call-off, so suppliers seeking similar work would need to be eligible under the relevant framework route and able to meet its requirements. Price was the stated award basis, making competitive costing central to a future comparable opportunity.

Notice Information

Notice Title

POW-DCO-63706 - Boiler Replacement at Llanidloes War Memorial Hospital

Notice Description

The existing boilers at Llanidloes Hospital are in extremely poor condition and have reached end of life. The existing Hamworthy Bradstone boilers are continually failing leading to ongoing call out and maintenance costs. Currently, 2 Nr. boilers are non-functional leading to concerns that further failures may impact the sites ability to operate safely - particularly moving into colder months. The efficiency of these boilers is also extremely poor leading to high energy consumption. The proposal is to replace these boilers with new high-efficiency models which provide a reliable source of heating for the site and reduce associated energy costs. The scope will also include local gas pipe/electric alterations to suit the new boiler layout and the installation of a gas solenoid valve to improve safety measures. The ambition is to complete this work during the summer period to avoid additional cost and disruption associated with temporary heating plant hire. Due to urgency of the requirement and the need to mobilise for summer installation, the proposal was to procure services via the Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) framework maintained by the Welsh Procurement Alliance. This route has been utilised for several recent successful boiler replacement projects.

Procurement Information

The contract was awarded through a compliant call-off from an established framework agreement. The framework was originally procured and awarded following a competitive tender process in accordance with the relevant procurement legislation, with all required due diligence, selection, evaluation and award procedures completed prior to suppliers being admitted to the framework. In accordance with the terms of the framework, a direct award (call-off without further competition) was undertaken, as the framework provisions permitted the selection of a supplier without reopening competition. The award is therefore lawful as it is made under the terms and conditions of a properly established framework agreement, and no separate contract notice or further competition was required. All governance, financial, and procurement checks applicable to the call-off have been completed in accordance with organisational procedures and the Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) framework maintained by the Welsh Procurement Alliance rules.
