Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council commissioned Phase 2 of the Government’s Wave 3 Housing Energy Efficiency Programme: external wall insulation and air-source heat pumps for housing properties. The works are intended to improve housing quality and household thermal comfort, reduce carbon emissions, and bring homes up to SAP band C. This is domestic energy-efficiency retrofit and heating installation work, rather than a supply-only purchase. Delivery is in Leeds, England. The requirement is classified as construction work for houses (CPV 45211100).

The procurement is complete and A Connolly Limited was selected for the contract. The award was made on 24 September 2026, at a value of £5.2 million. The contract period runs from 30 September 2026 to 29 September 2027. Leeds City Council used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 18 March 2026 at 12 noon. The award information gives no separate scoring or weighting basis for evaluation. The contract covers the programme’s Phase 2 insulation and heating works; the procurement is presented as one requirement rather than being divided into lots.

This award demonstrates demand from Leeds City Council for coordinated housing retrofit combining external wall insulation with air-source heat-pump installation, with the aim of improving home energy performance and comfort while reducing emissions. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to deliver both building-fabric insulation and low-carbon heating across housing properties, and manage the work as a joined-up programme rather than as isolated installations. The selected supplier is A Connolly Limited, identified as an SME, showing that an SME secured this contract. The procurement route was a call-off from a framework, so relevant framework access and the ability to compete through that route would matter. Delivery capability would need to support work at this programme scale and meet the stated objective of bringing homes to SAP band C.
