Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Folkestone & Hythe District Council commissioned communal heating and hot water upgrade works at Mittell Court in Folkestone. The works involve removing the existing heating and hot water plant and system and replacing it with a more energy-efficient system. All ten flats in the block, together with the communal heating system, are included. This is a construction and building-services opportunity focused on heating installation work, including the associated communal infrastructure. The procurement is classified under CPV 45331000. Delivery is in Folkestone, England, within the South East. The requirement is relevant to heating contractors, mechanical building-services firms and specialists in communal residential heating upgrades.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 28 April 2026 to Stonegrove Ltd. The awarded value is £408,860 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract runs from 18 May 2026 to 30 November 2026. The original tender value was £350,000 GBP. The contract was awarded through further competition as a selective call-off from Lot 6, Commercial Heating, of the Fusion21 Heating, Renewables & Electricals Framework. Bids were due by 16 April 2026 at 12:00. The council’s description states that the award decision was made on 28 April and the contract was fully executed on 10 July 2026. The opportunity was identified as suitable for SMEs.

This award shows demand from Folkestone & Hythe District Council for contractors able to deliver complete communal heating and hot water upgrades in occupied residential blocks. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical expertise in removing and replacing communal heating and hot water plant, designing or installing energy-efficient systems, and coordinating works across multiple flats while maintaining safe, reliable communal services. Experience with mechanical building services, residential retrofit and project delivery in a council or housing setting would strengthen a supplier’s position. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a suitably capable specialist rather than only by a large national contractor. The relevant route was a heating framework further competition.
