Summary of the contracting process

Norfolk County Council is in the planning stage of a public procurement process for "Heating, Hot water and Ventilation Plant Maintenance Services". This tender aims to appoint a single contractor to manage both planned and reactive maintenance services for heating, hot water, and ventilation systems across schools and highways depots in Norfolk. The procurement is classified under the service category, with an estimated contract value of £4,720,000 and is set to follow an open procurement method. Interested parties should note that the contract period is from 1st May 2026 to 31st March 2030, with potential extension options up to a further 60 months. Expressions of interest are currently being sought with the tender period closing on 5th January 2026, and the award process concluding by 19th January 2026.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in heating and ventilation maintenance, particularly those capable of delivering large-scale and comprehensive service packages. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are strongly encouraged to participate, especially if they can provide innovative solutions or efficient maintenance strategies that comply with the regulatory requirements and expected service levels. The potential for an extended contract period and the integration of services within a changing governance framework in Norfolk would benefit businesses looking to secure long-term partnerships and grow their footprint in public sector maintenance contracts.
