Summary of the contracting process

Inverclyde Council is procuring building services works to remove and replace 12 air-handling units at a site in Greenock. The work includes associated mechanical ventilation and incidental electrical work. This is a mechanical engineering and building-services project within the wider construction category (CPV 45000000; mechanical ventilation services, CPV 45331200). The council is the buying organisation and will use the completed works at the Greenock location. The requirement is focused on upgrading mechanical plant and ventilation infrastructure rather than supplying standalone equipment. It should interest contractors able to manage air-handling-unit replacement alongside connected mechanical ventilation systems and related electrical tasks in an occupied or operational public-sector building environment, subject to the detailed tender documents, drawings, specification, preliminaries, bills of quantities and pre-construction information.

The procurement reached tender: Inverclyde Council invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission in English. Bids were due by 26 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC, with public bid opening at the same time. The planned contract period is 3 April 2027 to 18 April 2027, a short delivery window. The tender is arranged as one lot, with no renewal or additional-purchase option and variants are not permitted. Bids must remain valid for 60 days after the submission deadline. Evaluation uses suitability criteria, with the detailed requirements set out in the tender documents. Electronic payment will be available and electronic invoicing is allowed. The contract is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This opportunity suits mechanical and building-services contractors with practical experience replacing air-handling units and integrating mechanical ventilation systems with associated electrical works. It is relevant to firms that can coordinate several connected trades, interpret drawings and specifications, price bills of quantities, and plan delivery against a tightly defined works programme. Experience working safely in public-sector or comparable building environments would be useful, particularly where pre-construction information and formal site controls apply. Suppliers should be able to submit a compliant electronic tender in English and demonstrate the suitability requested in the procurement documents. The requirement is best matched to contractors with responsive project management, competent mechanical installation teams, electrical support, procurement capacity for ventilation plant, and the ability to complete a concentrated upgrade project within the specified contract period.
