UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council commissioned mechanical installation works to replace the fuel-oil storage tank serving the generator at Elizabeth II Court’s Emergency Planning Centre. The work covers temporary fuel-supply arrangements, removing the existing tank, reconstructing or modifying its support structure, connecting the replacement tank, and commissioning and certifying the installation. The existing support arrangement was deforming the tank’s bund or base, so replacement was required to protect the integrity and reliability of the standby generator fuel system. The generator was to remain operational during the works wherever reasonably practicable. Delivery is in Hampshire; the award identifies the delivery area as Hampshire, without naming a more specific site address.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to MKG Building Services Ltd. Hampshire County Council used a selective route, making the below-threshold award under a framework. One lot was awarded. The contract was signed on 8 September 2026 and ran from 21 to 25 September 2026. Its stated value is £22,046 excluding VAT, or £26,455 including VAT. The award record identifies mechanical engineering installation works. No separate evaluation criteria or scoring basis are recorded in the process information, so the basis on which the framework supplier was selected cannot be stated.

For firms specialising in generator fuel systems and mechanical installation, this award shows Hampshire County Council’s demand for replacement of a standby generator’s oil-storage tank where its supporting structure is failing. A credible competitor would need to manage the complete installation: temporary fuel supply, safe removal, support-structure reconstruction or modification, connection of the new tank, commissioning and certification. The requirement also favours contractors able to plan work around an operational emergency-planning facility and maintain generator availability wherever practicable. This was a compact, time-critical works package awarded below the procurement threshold through a framework, so relevant framework access and the capacity to mobilise and complete a coordinated installation are commercially pertinent. The award went to a building-services contractor; relevant experience delivering comparable tank and generator-system works would support credibility.
