## Summary

The Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, acting through the UK Health Security Agency, recently completed a tender process for the "Replacement Data Centre Chillers (Porton Down)" project. Classified under the "Cooling and ventilation equipment" category, this procurement involves the replacement of eight cooling units at the Porton Down facility. The tender was conducted as a direct procurement without competition, being classified as "below threshold." The procurement was initiated with a tender stage and has progressed to the award stage, with the contract awarded to ON365 Limited. The project has a defined contract period from 17th March 2026 to 31st March 2026. The contract value amounts to £92,904, within a gross total of £111,484.80, all in GBP.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in the cooling and ventilation industry, especially those capable of delivering complete solutions including installation and professional services. The contract was awarded to a large-scale supplier; however, it demonstrates a potential for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) to engage in future tenders of a similar scale given the nature of direct procurement below the competition threshold. Companies with expertise in advanced cooling technologies and service capabilities that include equipment disposal and project management would be well-placed to compete for such contracts.
