The project is separated into several lots covering individual and district heating services across the north and south of the borough. The intended contract period will begin on 1st April 2026, with a potential extension up to 31st March 2031, subject to the council's discretion and performance outcomes. This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in heating and water repairs, as well as installation and maintenance of renewable technologies.

Sub-central government organisations like the London Borough of Southwark are valuable clients, offering potential long-term collaboration benefits and stability, particularly for businesses that can address complex service requirements efficiently and sustainably.
