Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council commissioned boiler replacement works at Hayling College. The work involves removing the existing boiler plant and installing a new natural-gas-fired condensing boiler system, including new flues. The new equipment is to be connected to the existing heating circuits, gas supply pipework and electrical power. Redundant boilers, gas and electrical components, pipework and cabling are to be removed from the site. This is mechanical engineering installation work at a school in Hampshire. The requirement combines boiler installation with associated flue, services and removal work, so it is relevant to mechanical contractors able to deliver a coordinated plant replacement in an occupied or operational education setting.

The procurement is complete and the works were awarded to Simer Environmental Services Limited. The contract was signed on 11 September 2026 and runs from 14 September to 30 October 2026. Its value is £169,912 excluding VAT (£203,895 including VAT). Hampshire County Council used a selective, competitive route, awarding under a framework; the procurement was below threshold. The process was arranged as one lot, which is complete. The published procurement data does not set out a separate evaluation weighting or scoring basis, so the award criteria cannot be described more specifically. The award is active and the contract is also recorded as active.

For suppliers considering comparable future work for Hampshire County Council, this award shows demand for school boiler plant replacement delivered through a framework-based, competitive selective process. A credible competitor would need to manage the full mechanical installation package: safe removal of redundant boiler and associated gas and electrical equipment, installation of natural-gas condensing boilers and flues, and integration with existing heating circuits, gas pipework and electrical supplies. Experience coordinating these connected building services tasks at an education site would be directly relevant. The awarded supplier is an SME, demonstrating that a smaller specialist firm was selected for this single-site works package. Mechanical engineering contractors with suitable boiler and flue installation capability, site-removal capacity and experience working with existing services are best placed to compete when this specific requirement next arises.
