Summary of the contracting process

Oxford City Council commissioned energy-efficiency consultancy services to undertake HNES optimisation studies across three council sites. The work is intended to support the Council’s HNES-funded programme and involves assessing and optimising energy-related arrangements at the sites. Delivery is associated with Oxford, with the Council based at Town Hall, St Aldate’s, Oxford, OX1 1BX. The requirement is for services rather than goods or construction works, and is relevant to consultants specialising in energy efficiency, heat, building performance or related optimisation studies. The appointed supplier is Chirpy Heat Ltd, based in Southwell, Nottinghamshire.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Chirpy Heat Ltd on 23 July 2026. Oxford City Council used a selective restricted procedure. The awarded contract value is £50,045, inclusive of the published currency, GBP. The contract period runs from 18 August 2026 to 21 December 2026. The tender submission deadline was 17 July 2026 at 12:00. The successful supplier was selected for the HNES optimisation studies requirement across three sites. The procurement was assessed as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. No separate lots or multiple awards are identified.

This award provides a clear reference point for firms tracking Oxford City Council’s energy-efficiency consultancy demand. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need specialist capability in HNES optimisation studies, energy-efficiency consultancy and the assessment of several council sites within one assignment. The award route also indicates that relevant suppliers may need to be prepared for a restricted procedure rather than an unrestricted competition. The published outcome points to a requirement suited to an established specialist consultancy with sufficient personnel and technical capacity to coordinate work across multiple locations, understand public-sector client needs and produce practical optimisation advice for an HNES-funded programme.
