## Summary

The London Borough of Hackney commissioned a services study to assess replacing the end-of-life secondary cooling system throughout all five floors of Hackney Service Centre at 1 Hillman Street, Hackney. The work is a feasibility study, advisory and analysis service, covering the building’s cooling requirements and options for replacement. The appointed team is led by an architect and works with a specialist mechanical and electrical engineer and a quantity surveyor. Delivery is at Hackney Service Centre in Hackney, England. The procurement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The requirement is building-services consultancy rather than construction, equipment supply or installation, and is relevant to firms able to coordinate architectural, engineering and cost-planning expertise for public-sector building projects.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Hamilton Architects on 24 August 2026. It used a direct award from the AMD Professional Consultancy Services Framework, Lot 1. The tender recorded an estimated value of £15,000, while the award value is £193,000. The awarded contract runs from 25 September 2026 to 26 November 2026. The tender submission deadline was 22 July 2026 at 2pm. The award is active. The contract covers the feasibility study for the secondary cooling system across the Hackney Service Centre. The award information identifies Hamilton Architects as the supplier. The procurement was evaluated through the framework direct-award route rather than an open competition, and the available outcome records do not set out separate quality or price weightings.

This award shows that the London Borough of Hackney buys short, multidisciplinary consultancy packages to investigate major building-services replacement needs. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need a lead architect able to manage a coordinated feasibility commission, supported by specialist mechanical and electrical engineering and quantity-surveying capability. Relevant strength includes diagnosing ageing cooling infrastructure across a multi-floor public building, developing practical replacement options, and producing reliable cost information for future investment decisions. Firms that can bring these disciplines together under one accountable lead, understand public-sector buildings and communicate recommendations clearly to a local-authority client would be well placed. The appointed supplier is an SME, indicating that this scale and team structure can be delivered by a smaller specialist practice or a suitable consultancy partnership.
