The project focuses on enhancing energy performance and efficiency in line with PAS2035 standards. This comprehensive retrofit includes external wall insulation, roof/gable end alterations, installation of new uPVC windows and GRP doors, adequate ventilation systems, new gas boilers and central heating systems, and solar PV installation. The houses, located in the Park South area of Swindon, fall within the SN3 postcode area. The tender procurement stage is ongoing, with the tender period ending on 2nd February 2024. The contract is valued approximately between £4,500,000 and £5,470,000, with the works expected to start on 19th June 2024 and conclude by 31st July 2025. This significant project presents substantial business growth opportunities, especially for SMEs interested in sustainable building and retrofitting services. It is vital for companies specialising in thermal insulation, window and door installation, HVAC systems, and renewable energy solutions. The aim to achieve net-zero emissions by 2030 aligns with growing demands for green initiatives, making it an ideal opportunity for businesses committed to sustainable practices. The project's comprehensive scope ensures various subcontracting and partnership opportunities, providing a robust platform for industry players to showcase their capabilities and expand their business in the public sector. ## Notice Swindon Borough Council is committed to delivering for our residents, local businesses and communities, with our services providing a lifeline and safety net to residents who need us most through the vital care and support we provide. We're ambitious for the town, realistic about the challenges but excited for the future, and we're acting now to meet the needs of Swindon's growing population. The Council intends to appoint a main contractor to lead the modernisation and improvement of up to 114 Unity properties within the Council's housing stock. These Unity properties, which suffer with poor thermal efficiency, are based on loadbearing Pre-Cast Reinforced concrete (PRC) structural frames. The project will deliver improvements to the energy performance of the properties via outcomes in line with PAS2035 (Retrofitting dwellings for improved energy efficiency), providing 'whole-house'/ 'whole building' retrofit and energy efficiency measures. The package of works to be undertaken by the successful Contractor will include, but not limited to: - External Wall Insulation including roof/gable end alterations and a new structural wall tie system, - Replacement uPVC Windows and GRP doors, - Installation of adequate ventilation as necessary, - New gas boilers and central heating systems, - Solar PV. The homes identified for the project are in the Park South area of Swindon in the SN3 postcode area. The 114 homes all sit within this geographical area across a number of streets. This project is a fundamental driver to support the Council's commitment and drive toward net-zero emissions by 2030, helping to make Swindon greener and more sustainable. Improving the thermal performance of the properties will help reduce CO2 emissions and fuel bills, therefore contributing to the economic sustainability of the households. In addition, the modernisation and improved aesthetics of the properties will contribute to the social sustainability of the surrounding neighbourhoods. The Council has made a separate appointment of a Lead Consultant to carry out all PAS2035 roles (retrofit assessor, designer, co-ordinator, etc), conduct structural and other required surveys, and complete the detailed design, specifications and bills of quantities. Detailed design will be provided with the tender documents. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f3564e19-3520-482d-b1d8-725aa337d5c1 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 3 Dec 2024 | | Submission deadline | 2 Feb 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 18 Jul 2024 | | Contract period | 30 Sep 2024 - 30 Sep 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £5,470,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £6,029,445 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SWINDON BOROUGH COUNCIL | | Locality | SWINDON | | Post town | Swindon | | Postcode | SN1 2JH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK7 Gloucestershire and Wiltshire | | ITL 3 | TLK71 Swindon | | Local authority | Swindon | | Electoral ward | Eastcott | | Westminster constituency | Swindon South | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | EQUANS REGENERATION | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 09 - Petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy - 44 - Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 09331000 - Solar panels - 44221100 - Windows - 44221111 - Double-glazed units - 44221220 - Fire doors - 44621000 - Radiators and boilers - 45211100 - Construction work for houses - 45211300 - Houses construction work - 45260000 - Roof works and other special trade construction works - 45321000 - Thermal insulation work - 45331210 - Ventilation installation work - 45421100 - Installation of doors and windows and related components ## Release History - 3 Dec 2024 at 15:54 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f3564e19-3520-482d-b1d8-725aa337d5c1 - 29 Dec 2023 at 13:48 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d7c8b0da-5872-493d-81d0-442258e9d5ba ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f3564e19-3520-482d-b1d8-725aa337d5c1 3rd December 2024 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d7c8b0da-5872-493d-81d0-442258e9d5ba 29th December 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk To register your interest in this opportunity and obtain the procurement documents please login or register (for free) at: ## Notice URLs - http://www.swindon.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
