## Summary

University Centre Somerset College Group procured HVAC servicing and maintenance across its buildings and sites. The requirement covers all air-conditioning systems, including fully comprehensive annual testing and inspection, planned maintenance, reactive repairs and emergency out-of-hours services. The work is classified as heating engineering services for buildings (CPV 71314310). It is divided across four college campuses: Bridgwater Campus, Taunton Campus, Cannington Campus and Strode Campus. The named locations are associated with Bridgwater College, Taunton College, Cannington College and Strode College respectively. This is a services opportunity for contractors able to maintain air-conditioning equipment across multiple education sites in Somerset, with requirements spanning routine compliance checks, preventative work, fault response and urgent support outside normal working hours.

The procurement has been completed following an open procedure. The tender closed on 2 August 2026, and the award was made on 7 August 2026. Three suppliers were selected: Canonbury Group Ltd, MBH Industrial Services Limited and Sherwood Building Services Engineers. The awarded value is £9,600, while the procurement's estimated value was £80,000. The contract period runs from 3 August 2026 to 31 July 2030. The requirement was split into four campus lots, but the published award does not attribute separate values or suppliers to individual lots. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Evaluation was conducted through the open procurement route; the available information does not state a separate quality or price weighting.

This award confirms sustained demand from University Centre Somerset College Group for specialist HVAC servicing across a multi-campus education estate. A credible future competitor would need to provide full annual testing and inspection of air-conditioning units, planned preventative maintenance, reactive fault response and emergency out-of-hours attendance. The requirement favours firms able to organise coverage across Bridgwater, Taunton, Cannington and Strode, while maintaining consistent service standards at several operational sites. Small and medium-sized businesses were considered suitable, so a capable regional contractor may be well placed to compete, either directly or through a delivery model covering all required locations. Relevant experience should demonstrate reliable maintenance, rapid response and the capacity to support a long-running, multi-site service.
