## Summary

The procurement process is being conducted by Herefordshire Council for the project titled "First Time Central Heating Supply and Installation Works," which falls under the heating works category. This project aims to provide efficient heating solutions to approximately 130 households in rural areas of Herefordshire and Shropshire, with a total contract value of £600,000. The tender was published on February 11, 2020, and is currently in the award stage, having reached its conclusion on April 30, 2020. The procurement method utilised is the open procedure, and contractors were invited to submit bids for various heating installation lots, with contract performance scheduled from May 1, 2020, to April 30, 2021.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses engaged in heating installation, particularly those specialising in LPG, air source, and ground source heat pumps, as well as biomass solutions. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, given the project's focus on delivering energy-efficient solutions to fuel-poor households. Companies with relevant expertise in renewable energy technologies and experience in similar public contracts will be well-positioned to tender for this work, contributing to local sustainability efforts while expanding their business portfolio.

## Notice

An estimated further 130 households that are private owner occupied and privately rented in rural areas of Herefordshire and Shropshire are set to benefit from the Rural Warm Homes Fund project to install efficient affordable first time heating. The funding established by National Grid and being administered by Community Interest Company, Affordable Warmth Solutions, is designed to support councils, registered social landlords and relevant partner organisations to address some of the issues affecting fuel poor households. There is no defined list of properties as these will emerge through the project facilitated by the contract administrators. Installers will also be able to inform the Contract Administrator of qualifying properties. Funding will be combined with other non-council funding streams (principally ECO3) to provide PS0.96 million of capital works to an estimated 150 eligible households across Herefordshire and Shropshire. This funding refers to Category 2: Rural (Renewables including Biomass, Heat pumps and LPG installs) with targets of 150. Contractors can bid to deliver against just the LPG installs, Biomass installs, or just the heat pump installs, or all. Lot 1: LPG (estimated installation of 110) Lot 2: Air Source Heat Pumps (estimated installation of 10 - 20) Lot 3: Ground Source Heat Pumps (estimated installation of 10 - 20) Lot 4: Biomass (estimated installation of 10 - 20) Herefordshire Council has published this opportunity on the 'Supplying the Southwest Portal'.
