## Summary

The London Borough of Tower Hamlets has procured a contract for the decarbonisation and comfort improvement of Bangabandhu and Cubitt Town Primary Schools, located within the borough. The project's goal is to enhance the schools' heating systems, improve energy efficiency, and address thermal discomfort issues. This initiative, managed by the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, falls under the Open Procedure method, inviting multiple bidders to participate. The procurement process is now in the Award stage, with the contract awarded to Etec Contract Services Ltd. The contract initiation comes with a focus on decarbonising heat, reducing energy bills, and staying within budget. The value of the contract amounts to approximately £3,679,601, with a contract period commencing on 1st June 2026 and potentially extending until May 2028.

The tender presents an excellent opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the construction and energy efficiency sectors to engage in public works contracts. The focus on decarbonisation and energy efficiency aligns with the growing industry trend towards sustainability, offering businesses not only a chance to expand their portfolio but also to contribute to community development and environmental goals. Given the scale and complexity of the project, companies specialising in sustainable building technologies, heating systems, and energy management would be well-suited to compete. Collaborations with such projects can enhance a company's visibility and credibility in the sector, positioning them advantageously for future opportunities.

## Notice

This contract is to deliver decarbonisation and comfort improvement works at Bangabandhu Primary School (1990s steel-frame, architecturally distinctive) and Cubitt Town Primary School and Nursery (1930s structure with extensions from the 1960s to 2000s), both located within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. The schools currently face significant thermal discomfort - overheating in summer and insufficient heating in winter, as well as end of life boilers. The overall purpose and goal of the School Decarbonisation project is to decarbonise the school sites' heating technology, within the available finance, whilst maximising additional interventions to reduce the school energy bills. The key project priorities are: o Move to decarbonised heat o Reduce energy bills o Stay within budget o Improve the internal environment to create a more comfortable learning environment o Work closely with the school community to ensure that their senior leadership team is consulted on all key design and delivery decisions o Ensure that interventions are interrogated holistically in order to avoid potential issues such as mold o Calculate carbon and energy usage reductions
