Summary of the contracting process

Eastern Procurement Limited is procuring a single, multi-supplier framework for heating, electrical, mechanical and decarbonisation works and associated services. The scope covers domestic and non-domestic occupied and vacant properties, including installation, replacement, servicing, statutory inspections, testing, planned and responsive maintenance, repairs and emergency attendance. Requirements may include gas, oil, electric and renewable heating; boilers, heat pumps, solar thermal and photovoltaic systems; electrical installations, alarms, lighting, ventilation, electric vehicle charging, battery storage, heat networks and other low-carbon technologies. Retrofit assessments, energy performance certificates, PAS 2035-related services, project management and Legionella risk assessments are also included. Work may be delivered across the United Kingdom, including England, Wales and Scotland, and in Guernsey, the Isle of Man and Jersey.

The procurement has reached tender: Eastern Procurement Limited invited offers through an open procedure. It is a single framework rather than separate lots, with call-offs awarded with or without further competition. The tender submission deadline is 21 October 2026 at 12:00, and enquiries close on 12 October 2026 at 12:00. The award decision is due by 9 December 2026. The framework is scheduled to run from 6 January 2027 to 5 January 2031. Its estimated value is £1,060,972,300.47 excluding VAT, or £1,273,166,760.56 including VAT. Up to 10 suppliers may participate. Evaluation uses a price-per-quality-point ratio: total price is divided by quality score, with the lowest ratio ranked first. Electronic submission in English is allowed, and a successful supplier pays a 2% award-value fee.

This opportunity suits integrated building-services contractors, specialist heating and electrical firms, mechanical and ventilation providers, renewable-energy and decarbonisation specialists, retrofit professionals, energy assessors and construction project managers. Suppliers need the capability to cover the overall combined scope directly or through a declared supply chain, including planned programmes, responsive repairs, breakdowns, emergency and out-of-hours attendance, servicing and compliance work. Relevant experience may include domestic and commercial heating, electrical testing and certification, low-carbon systems, solar photovoltaic installations, heat pumps, energy assessments, retrofit coordination, ventilation, fire and carbon-monoxide detection, electric vehicle charging and energy monitoring. The framework is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, but its national coverage and broad turnkey requirement favour businesses with substantial delivery capacity, coordinated supply chains and experience managing varied property programmes.
