Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Northumberland County Council procured heating decarbonisation works at Seahouses Primary School. The project separates the nursery’s heating from the existing ground-source system by installing a new air-source heat pump to serve the nursery, reducing the load on the ground-source system by 25 kW. The work also includes recommissioning the existing ground-source heating system that serves the school site. This is building-services engineering work focused on low-carbon heating and the integration and recommissioning of heat-pump systems. Delivery is at the school in Seahouses, Northumberland.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to EQUANS REGENERATION LIMITED. The award was made on 27 July 2026, following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The contract value is £581,139.56. The contract period runs from 29 July to 29 October 2026. The tender submission deadline was 24 July 2026. The requirement was procured as a single works package, with no lots recorded. The stated evaluation criteria are not available in the published process information.

This award shows Northumberland County Council buying a substantial, school-based heating decarbonisation project through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to deliver air-source heat pump installation, connect it appropriately with existing ground-source heating, and recommission the retained system so it continues to serve the wider site. Relevant building-services delivery capability and experience working in an operational school environment would support a strong proposition. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so firms of that scale may be well placed to compete, provided they can manage the technical scope and deliver the works as an integrated package.
