This agreement focuses on the supply of smart heating systems designed to enhance energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. The procurement was conducted using an open procedure and is classified under heating equipment with an active status. The contract period commenced on 1st March 2019 and will run until 28th February 2023. Interested parties were invited to submit their tenders before the deadline of 7th February 2019, with options for delivery across the United Kingdom and other regions, including Europe and the British Overseas Territories. This framework agreement presents lucrative opportunities for businesses involved in the energy efficiency and heating sectors, especially those capable of delivering innovative and scalable heating solutions that incorporate control and communication technology. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, given the framework's openness and inclusivity. The structure of the agreement allows suppliers to demonstrate their capabilities in energy management, while the approach of "heating as a service" can attract contractors who seek sustainable business models to enhance operational efficiencies in building management. ## Notice The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, through its Commercial Procurement Services, has awarded a national framework agreement for the supply of Smart Heating Systems. Smart Heating systems incorporate control and communications technology with energy-saving heating systems to reduce costs and carbon emissions associated with heating. Solutions primarily involve the installation of high-efficiency heaters that are connected, via a building's electrical circuit and/or wirelessly to each other and to external analytics and control centres enabling monitoring and control of energy usage, system status reporting and software updates. The system is scalable, with units working individually and together to create a coherent platform for managing buildings to drive efficiencies across estates. The system requires zero maintenance input from the end-user and approaches as close as possible a "heating as a service" model. This will be a framework agreement with no commitment or guaranteed level of business. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/997d55be-6ac2-4c3a-9254-4f7674667d37 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 8 Mar 2019 | | Submission deadline | 7 Feb 2019 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 28 Feb 2019 | | Contract period | 1 Mar 2019 - 28 Feb 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | 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 | COUNTESS OF CHESTER HOSPITAL | | Locality | CHESTER | | Post town | Chester | | Postcode | CH2 1UL | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD6 Cheshire | | ITL 3 | TLD63 Cheshire West and Chester | | Local authority | Cheshire West and Chester | | Electoral ward | Upton | | Westminster constituency | Chester North and Neston | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | LOGICOR (CH | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 39 - Furniture (incl. office furniture), furnishings, domestic appliances (excl. lighting) and cleaning products ### Codes - 39715200 - Heating equipment ## Release History - 8 Mar 2019 at 16:11 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/997d55be-6ac2-4c3a-9254-4f7674667d37 - 11 Jan 2019 at 08:53 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f4e1fee4-ffa3-4421-a396-b93b39bf7110 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/997d55be-6ac2-4c3a-9254-4f7674667d37 8th March 2019 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f4e1fee4-ffa3-4421-a396-b93b39bf7110 11th January 2019 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/887bfe13-e745-475f-aa72-af25c9cfd203 Specification - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/c787ad57-34b7-42be-9b03-cb45fabce312 Template framework agreement - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/49c02a95-4ea4-4bf6-943b-eefa8dda5d2d Prerequisites - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/fb1c91e5-635d-4262-b2a6-6007c1f09ba8 ITT - http://www.nhssourcing.co.uk Link to ITT - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/dd957013-2cbe-4e4b-95cc-1ceeaad0112d OJEU Award Notice ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
