The brief

The Authority wishes to appoint one Contractor submitting the Most Economically Advantageous Tender (MEAT), to manage, operate and maintain renewable heat and associated services across the estate.

The Contractor will be required to undertake the management of heat provision, which will include fuel delivery and supply, management and undertaking of the servicing, maintenance and repair of biomass plant, and associated equipment, including fuel storage facilities, ancillary equipment and plant controls.

The contract specifically excludes the building heating system such as pipework and heaters and the Authority’s Housing stock which is specifically excluded from the scope of the requirements described.

The Contract shall commence on 06 September 2023 and will endure until 05 September 2026, with the option of multiple extensions to be extended by up to thirty-six (36) months, subject to mutual agreement.

The option of multiple extensions may be exercised by the Authority giving written notice to the Contractor to that effect, not less than three (3) months before the contract would otherwise expire.

The estimated annual value (based on historical data of approximately 35,000,000kWh heat consumption across the estate) is 5,800,000.00 GBP.

Please note these are estimated and for guidance purposes only.

Tenderers should note and consider the background of market conditions and decreasing public sector budgets and the need to target and achieve budgetary pressures against the current annual costs experienced by the Council for the Services provided by this Contract.
