## Summary

The procurement process in question involves the replacement of condenser fans at the Biggs Building Chiller for the Pirbright Institute, located in Woking, United Kingdom. The contracting authority, a sub-central government public authority, directly awarded the contract to Trane UK Limited, a large-scale supplier, as the sole manufacturer of these specific fans. This contract, classified under the goods category, was active as of 28th August 2025, with the work commencing from 8th September and expected to conclude by 3rd October 2025. The procurement method followed was direct procurement, below threshold, carried out without competition, primarily due to the exclusive availability of the product from the awarded supplier.

This tender creates substantial opportunities for growth for businesses involved in the supply and maintenance of electrical and mechanical building installation components, such as condenser parts. Although the procurement was a direct award, it underscores the importance of having unique or specialised products that meet specific tender requirements, potentially benefiting suppliers who can establish themselves as key manufacturers or exclusive providers. Therefore, businesses looking to compete in similar future tender processes should consider focusing on product innovation and exclusivity in their offerings to become indispensable to contracting authorities seeking highly specialised goods or services.

## Notice

Replacement condenser fans so that the Biggs Chiller can operate and provide free cooling to Biggs and when required can also supply chilled water to ISO11. We have found out that through checks with our normal refrigeration maintenance provider that Trane is the only suppler of these fans that can only be procured directly through the manufacturer.
