Summary of the contracting process

East Renfrewshire Council procured mechanical and electrical design consultancy for a programme refurbishing toilet blocks at its primary and secondary schools. The appointed consultant is expected to prepare mechanical and electrical drawings and specifications, together with other design services needed to support delivery. The work covers schools across East Renfrewshire, with the requirement describing refurbishment of around 15 toilet blocks, most likely across three or more schools each year. This is a professional engineering consultancy service, classified under CPV 71334000, with related building-services and engineering design classifications. The requirement is for design support linked to school refurbishment rather than construction delivery, so it is most relevant to multidisciplinary building-services consultants with education-sector or public-sector refurbishment experience.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded. It was run as a mini-competition under East Renfrewshire Council’s Mechanical and Electrical Consultancy Services Framework 2025–2027, with the underlying method recorded as an open procedure. One lot covered the requirement. WGM Consulting Engineers was selected, and the contract is valued at £100,000. The contract was signed on 10 July 2026 and is active. Two bids were received, both from SMEs, and both were submitted electronically. The award followed competition under the existing framework; the published outcome does not set out separate evaluation weightings or a contract end date. East Renfrewshire Council is the buying organisation.

For a supplier assessing future demand from this buyer, this procurement demonstrates a recurring need for coordinated mechanical and electrical design consultancy supporting school toilet refurbishments at a multi-school scale. A credible competitor would need to produce clear, buildable drawings and specifications, coordinate mechanical and electrical requirements, and provide practical design support through refurbishment delivery. The work would suit an SME or larger engineering consultancy able to manage several school sites and multiple toilet-block projects within a yearly programme. Relevant experience in education buildings, public-sector estates, refurbishment projects and compliance-led building-services design would strengthen a future response. Suppliers should also be able to work through a framework mini-competition and submit bids electronically.
