Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process, facilitated by Oxfordshire County Council, focused on the replacement of the heating system at Comper School under a JCT 2016 Minor Works contract. This project falls under the "works" industry category, specifically involving heating works and plumbing equipment, and is conducted in the Oxford region, UKJ14. The procurement process, operating under a "limited" method with below-threshold competition, has reached the award stage as of 2nd September 2025. The contract was awarded to Darnells Limited, a small to medium-sized enterprise, with the contract period starting on 12th June 2025 and scheduled to conclude on 31st October 2025, carrying a gross value of £80,582.40.

Small and medium enterprises in the construction and heating systems industries could leverage such procurement opportunities to expand their service areas and client base, as demonstrated by Darnells Limited's involvement in this tender. The project provides a lucrative engagement within a clearly defined scope that might appeal to businesses specialising in minor works contracts and those with expertise in heating system installations. Given the possibility of extension as per the contract terms, businesses may find additional opportunities for long-term collaboration with local authorities such as Oxfordshire County Council.
