## Summary

The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea is conducting a procurement process for the Notting Dale Heat Network project, involving the design and build of secondary and tertiary networks to serve residential blocks, a school, a leisure centre, and business units in the Lancaster West Estate in North Kensington. The procurement method is a selective competitive procedure with negotiation above threshold, with a contract period from June 9, 2023, to April 25, 2025. The total contract value is £12,679,881.49 GBP, and the tender period ends on November 21, 2022, with the award date being December 19, 2023.

This opportunity for business growth in the heating works category is ideal for companies specialising in construction, heating systems, and infrastructure development. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would be well-suited to compete due to the project's focus on serving diverse end-users within a specific geographic location. With a clear outline of requirements and a significant contract value, businesses with expertise in heat network installations and maintenance can leverage their capabilities to participate in this multi-year project and contribute to the council's ambitious energy performance objectives.

## Notice

The Lancaster West Estate in North Kensington is undergoing a comprehensive refurbishment of its social housing and landscaping with a deep energy retrofit to improve its energy performance. The Notting Dale Heat Network is to be delivered and operated by a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) wholly owned by the Council, Notting Dale Heat Network Ltd. It is RBKC's ambition that it will be the most reliable and proactively maintained heat network in the UK. The initial phase of the Project is to serve the Lancaster West Estate (LWE) for which the intended heat users include around 800 residential units, a school, a large Council-owned leisure centre and business units for SMEs (Baseline Studios). This project forms the second part of the Procurement strategy to support the Heat Network delivery. The Authority is conducting procurement for the design and construction of the Tertiary Networks and all internal (above ground) sections of the Secondary Networks within the Notting Dale Heat Network. The D&B works for this contract package will comprise: 1. Installation of the above-ground pipework that forms the Secondary Networks serving residential blocks, including the heat interface unit (HIUs) that serve each flat, together with strip out and disposal as appropriate of existing communal heating supply systems. 2. Installation of the Tertiary Networks serving each flat comprising: thermostatic controls, radiators, valves and small diameter distribution pipework; and strip out and disposal of the existing heating systems. 3. On completion of the above works to each block, a permanent connection to the Heat Network is required as soon as the latter has become operational, and undertake test & commissioning. The D&B Contract period is for 4 years from 9 June 2023 to 9 June 2027. Flexibility in delivering these works within this 4-year period is key, with at least 4 months' notice of work commencement to be given to the D&B Contractor.
