Summary of the contracting process

Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council has undertaken a public procurement process to install Air to Air Source Heat Pumps in four sheltered scheme complexes within its locality in Hinckley, United Kingdom, to comply with Government de-carbonisation targets. The process involves an open, below threshold competition, starting from 11th March 2026 with a contract period lasting until 11th March 2031. The tender, known as HBBC-1541, falls under the goods category and aims to replace fossil fuel dependency in heating and hot water systems with environmentally friendly solutions by 2030. The contract has been awarded to ROBERT HEATH HEATING LIMITED, involving delivery across regions UKF21 and UKF22.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in renewable energy solutions, particularly those producing or installing heat pumps. SME suppliers like ROBERT HEATH HEATING LIMITED, who successfully secured this contract, demonstrate the potential for smaller enterprises to compete effectively in sub-central government procurements. With the open competition model emphasising both quality (60%) and price (40%), businesses with expertise in sustainable heating solutions and innovative strategies can leverage this procurement to expand their operations and contribute to nationwide environmental goals.
