## Summary

The University of East Anglia has completed the procurement process for replacing water chillers at Sainsbury’s Centre for Visual Arts, with the main focus on building installation and site preparation work, classified under CPV 45111200. The procurement method was selective, conducted through a call-off from a framework agreement, and the total contract value was £726,706.93. This award phase, tagged as complete, was initiated on 26th August 2025 with the contract set to begin on 9th February 2026 and end on 29th May 2026. The project is located in the East of England, United Kingdom, with NCL Contractors Ltd appointed as the supplier to ensure the supply and connection of modern chiller units matching the existing infrastructure.

This tender offers growth opportunities for large-scale businesses that specialize in building installation, environmental control systems, and engineering consultancy services. The project demands a sophisticated understanding of modern cooling technologies and environmental standards, making companies with extensive expertise in construction and engineering consultancy well-suited to participate. Given the project's focus on enhanced environmental control, firms equipped to innovate within the constraints of existing infrastructure stand to benefit significantly from engaging in such contracts. Participation in such tenders enables businesses to expand their portfolio and enhance their market reputation by delivering critical infrastructure upgrades.

## Notice

The project was to replace two chillers with modern equivalents, utilising the same plant space and connections to the existing distribution systems. To meet the requirement of the Government Insurance Scheme (GIS), which allows the loan of artwork between institutions, it has its own stand-alone environmental control system, which provides enhanced levels of control in comparison to the main building. This system relies upon two Carrier water chillers to provide cooling and dehumidification, located in a dedicated plant room in the Crescent Wing.
