## Summary

Oxford City Council has awarded a contract for consultancy services to BURO HAPPOLD LIMITED focusing on a heat network zoning refinement study. This contract, titled "Oxford Heat Network Zoning Refinement Study," falls under the category of environmental engineering consultancy services. The procurement process is classified as sub-central government, indicating a public authority role. The contract period began on 5th March 2026 and is set to end on 5th June 2026, with potential extensions. Located in the United Kingdom, specifically in Oxford and Bath regions, the award was active as of 12th March 2026, and the total contract value amounts to £54,000. The procurement method was specified as below threshold, which typically refers to procurement not subject to full EU procurement rules due to its size.

This tender presents business growth opportunities in the environmental consultancy sector, particularly for firms specializing in infrastructure and sustainability projects. Large consultancy firms with expertise in heat network zoning are well-suited to compete, given the technical nature of the study. The study is crucial for advancing local environmental initiatives and improving heat network infrastructure. Companies experienced in collaborating with public authorities in the UK, like BURO HAPPOLD LIMITED, are ideal candidates for similar future projects, enabling them to enhance their service portfolios and engage in strategic partnerships with public sector organisations.
