Summary of the contracting process

Highland Council procured energy-efficiency works to homes in the Nairn area. The project involved replacing heating systems and domestic pipework, with solar photovoltaic panels installed in some properties. The procurement was a single package of housing improvements, delivered in Nairn. The work falls within the construction category and was procured through the council’s Housing Heating Framework. It is relevant to contractors with the capability to upgrade domestic heating and plumbing systems and install solar panels as part of residential energy-efficiency projects.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to EJ Parker Technical Services (Scotland North) Ltd. The contract was signed on 24 September 2026, with an awarded value of £331,294.57. Highland Council used an open procedure under its Housing Heating Framework. The requirement was awarded as one lot. The published bid statistics show one bid, from an SME. No evaluation criteria, contract start or end dates, or award date are recorded in the available process details.

This award demonstrates demand from Highland Council for combined domestic heating and pipework replacement, with solar photovoltaic installation on some homes. A credible competitor for similar work would need to deliver residential heating upgrades and plumbing work, and have the capability to incorporate solar installations where required. The requirement was delivered through the council’s Housing Heating Framework, so suppliers seeking comparable council work should be able to compete through a relevant framework route. The awarded contractor is recorded as an SME, and the single bid came from an SME; this indicates that a small or medium-sized supplier was able to participate in this procurement. The work was a defined housing improvement project rather than a general construction requirement.
