Summary of the contracting process

The New Forest District Council has completed a procurement process, culminating in the award of a contract to A.P. Faulkner (Heating) Limited. This contract, established through an open competition under the framework agreement, pertains to the replacement of domestic boilers in council housing within the UKJ region, spanning from September 2025 to 2029. The procurement method was below the threshold for open competition and involved a single-contractor framework agreement. Key dates include the contract's start date on 15th September 2025, and its completion date on 15th September 2030. The procurement falls under the industry categories of building installation work and repair and maintenance services of central heating.

This procurement offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in heating system installations and maintenance, particularly those experienced in managing framework agreements. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like A.P. Faulkner (Heating) Limited, which successfully secured the contract, are well-positioned to benefit from such opportunities. By engaging in this framework agreement, businesses can gain a stable work volume over the four-year period, albeit dependent on the authority’s operational demand and budget availability. This project presents potential growth avenues for corporations adept at adapting to varying workloads and providing high-quality service.
