## Summary

East Sussex County Council procured construction works to replace the boilers and control system at Priory School. The requirement covers the mechanical replacement works and associated control-system work needed at the school. Delivery is in East Sussex. The procurement is categorised as construction work and was run as a works requirement. The buyer is a regional or local authority based in Lewes. The selected supplier, Edgar and Wood Mechanical Services Limited, is based in Brighton and is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise. This requirement is therefore relevant to mechanical services contractors, heating specialists and building-services firms able to deliver boiler replacement and control-system installation in a school environment.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It was run as a limited mini-competition under a PCR15 Works Framework, using an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. Price was the stated evaluation criterion. The contract was awarded to Edgar and Wood Mechanical Services Limited, and the contract was signed on 4 June 2026. Its value is £309,320.91. The contract is active, although the published lot is marked cancelled. Five bids were received, all from SMEs and all submitted electronically. The requirement included an option to extend the programme if the works timetable slipped. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement and was treated as outside the scope of the relevant directive.

This award shows that East Sussex County Council uses a works framework mini-competition to buy sizeable school mechanical projects, with price as the stated basis for selection. Five suppliers competed, demonstrating an established market for this type of requirement and competition from SMEs. A credible future competitor would need proven capability in boiler replacement, heating and mechanical services, control-system installation and work in occupied or operational education buildings. It would also need the project management capacity to coordinate programme changes if works overrun, and the commercial discipline to compete on price. Experience of public-sector framework procedures, electronic tendering and delivering construction works in East Sussex would strengthen a supplier’s position when this buyer next requires comparable school infrastructure work.
