The requirement covers refurbishment and replacement of the existing boiler plant in two plantrooms serving the school. The works include removing the existing MHS Stratus boilers and redundant equipment, then installing Ideal or Hamworthy Evomax 2 modular boiler systems with new frames and header arrangements, plate heat exchangers, integrated controls, flue systems and ancillary equipment. The contractor must also complete commissioning, testing and handover. This is a school heating upgrade and falls within the heating works category. Delivery is at The Beeches Primary School, Peterborough, in England. The process reached tender: Peterborough City Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It is a single-lot procurement with an estimated value of £150,000 excluding VAT, or £180,000 including VAT. Tenders were to be submitted electronically through ProContract by 9 September 2026 at 12:00. The contract period set by the council runs from 7 October 2026 to 18 November 2026. Evaluation is sequential. Bids are assessed first against qualitative criteria and must achieve at least 65% out of 100% for quality. Only bids meeting that threshold proceed to price assessment. The contract is awarded to the lowest-priced tender that meets or exceeds the 65% minimum quality threshold. This opportunity suits heating and mechanical services contractors with practical experience replacing commercial gas boiler plant in occupied or operational educational buildings. Relevant capability includes safely removing redundant boilers and associated equipment, installing modular Ideal or Hamworthy Evomax 2 systems, and delivering compatible frames, headers, plate heat exchangers, controls integration, flues and ancillary equipment. Suppliers must be able to manage commissioning, testing and formal handover so that the school’s heating installation is ready for use. The requirement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to specialist regional firms as well as larger mechanical contractors. Businesses should be comfortable demonstrating technical quality before competing primarily on price. ## Notice The existing boilers have reached the end of their serviceable life and require replacement before the start of the cold weather in 2026. The proposed works comprise the refurbishment and replacement of existing gas-fired boiler plant within two existing plantrooms serving The Beeches Primary School, Beech Avenue, Peterborough, PE1 2EH. The existing boiler plant currently consists of MHS Stratus boilers which are considered to be at the end of their operational life expectancy. The works shall include the removal of the existing boilers and associated redundant equipment and the installation of new Ideal / Hamworthy Evomax 2 modular boiler systems complete with new frame and header arrangements, plate heat exchangers, controls integration works, flue systems, ancillary equipment, commissioning, testing and handover. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/078439-2026 | | Notice type | UK4 - Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Below threshold - open competition | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 18 Aug 2026 | | Submission deadline | 9 Sep 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 7 Oct 2026 - 18 Nov 2026 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £150,000 | | Lots value | £150,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | Peterborough City Council | | Locality | PETERBOROUGH | | Postcode area | Peterborough | | Postcode | PE2 8TY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH4 Cambridgeshire and Peterborough | | ITL 3 | TLH41 Peterborough | | Local authority | Peterborough | | Electoral ward | Fletton and Stanground | | Westminster constituency | North West Cambridgeshire | | Delivery location | TLH11 Peterborough | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45232141 - Heating works ## Release History - 18 Aug 2026 at 11:01 - Tender - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/078439-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/078439-2026 18th August 2026 - Tender notice on Find a Tender - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=07d07a94-e99a-f111-813c-005056b64545 ## Notice URLs - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
