UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Kent procured replacement domestic pipework and a cold water storage tank (CWST) at Sheerness Police Station. The requirement falls within building services and plumbing works, with hot water identified as the associated supply category. Delivery is at the police station in Sheerness, serving Kent’s policing estate. The work concerns building infrastructure rather than general facilities management or routine maintenance, and is relevant to businesses that install, replace or upgrade domestic water and hot-water systems in public or commercial buildings. The buying organisation is a sub-central public authority based at Kent Police HQ in Maidstone. The selected supplier, Heating Smart, is based in Gillingham, Kent.

The procurement has been completed following a below-threshold limited competition. The tender was recorded as complete and one supplier was awarded the requirement: Heating Smart. The award is active and the contract was signed on 21 July 2026. The contract value is £19,058.94 excluding VAT, or £22,870.73 including VAT. The contract period runs from 21 July 2026 to 30 September 2026. The procurement had one completed lot covering the Sheerness Police Station requirement. It was conducted through a limited procedure rather than an open competition, with participation restricted to the suppliers selected for the limited competition. The award was made to Heating Smart for the hot-water-related requirement.

This procurement shows demand from the Police and Crime Commissioner for Kent for specialist building-services contractors able to replace domestic water pipework and cold water storage tanks in an operational police-station environment. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need practical plumbing and heating capability, experience working on hot-water and domestic water systems, and the capacity to complete a focused installation project within a public-sector property. Experience of working safely around secure or operational sites would strengthen a supplier’s position, as would the ability to manage access, protect existing building services and leave the facility operational. Local presence in Kent may support responsive delivery, although the successful supplier’s location does not itself establish a requirement.
