## Summary

South Oxfordshire District Council has initiated a tender process titled "Construction Management, Detailed Design, Supply, Installation and Commissioning for the Installation of Air Source Heat Pumps and Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Cells and all other associated works at Didcot Wave Leisure Centre and Park Sports Centre in South Oxfordshire." This procurement is within the services sector, particularly focusing on construction work for leisure and sports facilities. The current procurement stage is in the tender phase, with an end date for tender submissions on 22nd January 2025, and the project is set to commence on 17th February 2025, expected to be completed by 31st December 2025. This open procedure procurement, estimated at £200,000, allows small and medium enterprises to participate and is conducted below the threshold.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in construction management, renewable energy systems, and related services. Potential bidders who are adept in the installation and integration of Air Source Heat Pumps and Solar Photovoltaic cells, along with experience in decarbonisation projects, will find this tender a substantial growth opportunity. Companies skilled in handling detailed design, managing small to mid-scale construction projects, and those with a capability for early purchase and value engineering of equipment are particularly well-suited to compete in this tender process.

## Notice

The works associated with the decarbonisation projects at Didcot Wave Leisure Centre and Park Sports Centre include the removal of existing boiler plant assets and replacement with ASHPs and the addition of Solar PV, low flow temperature distribution systems, heat emitter upgrades and other associated works. The tender for Design & Build contractor/s will be under a two-stage procurement process - initially with PCSA award only - to develop the Brief provided for both properties to RIBA Stage 4 and to provide tender costs with Value Engineering, if needed, to achieve the budget and to allow early vested purchase of equipment to maintain the programme and the grant spend requirements. There will be some fabric works to the roof and cavity wall insulation measures at Park Sports Centre, designed by others, that will need to be completed under the PCSA once the location of ASHPs has been finalised. There will be some external works at Didcot Wave associated with the assessment of space utilisation for ASHP housing.
