Summary of the contracting process

South Tyneside Borough Council sought a contractor to install a wind turbine at the VENJ Heat Network site in Jarrow, providing power to the heat network. The requirement covers wind-power installation works and a 20-year maintenance service for the turbine. The work is to be delivered in Jarrow, South Tyneside. This is a works contract for suppliers able to design, install, commission and maintain wind-generation equipment as part of an operational heat-network site. The council is the public-sector buyer. The opportunity is therefore relevant to renewable-energy contractors, wind-turbine installation specialists, electrical and mechanical engineering businesses, and firms able to provide long-term asset maintenance.

The council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition using a two-stage Competitive Flexible Procedure. Applicants first had to complete and return the Procurement Specific Questionnaire by 12 noon on 21 August 2026; five to seven tenderers were to be shortlisted, with final tender documents intended for issue on 7 September 2026 and responses intended by 12 noon on 9 October 2026. The contract period was set from 4 January 2027 to 21 May 2027. Its estimated value was £1,200,000 excluding VAT, or £1,440,000 including VAT. Evaluation was on price, quality and social value, with indicative weightings of price 60–80%, quality 20–55% and social value 7%. The procurement was cancelled because the council decided to amend the contract maintenance period.

This opportunity suits small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as established renewable-energy contractors with the technical capability to install and maintain a wind turbine serving a heat-network site. Strong candidates would have relevant wind-generation installation experience, competent electrical and mechanical engineering teams, commissioning capability and the capacity to provide reliable planned and responsive maintenance over the required long-term service period. Suppliers should also be able to prepare a compliant Procurement Specific Questionnaire and subsequent tender response, demonstrate delivery capability for a public-sector works project, and address quality and social-value requirements alongside price. The requirement may also suit specialist firms working with installation, energy-infrastructure or facilities-maintenance partners.
