Heating, Electrical and Decarbonisation Framework

This Notice formally announces the award by the Contracting Authority for the establishment of a new Heating, Electrical, and Decarbonisation Framework, which will replace the current provision. The framework covers a comprehensive range of services tailored for public sector clients. The Heating, Electrical, and Decarbonisation Framework is divided into six distinct lots, enabling clients to initiate Call-Offs based on CPV codes, geographical regions, and financial criteria.

A comprehensive list of eligible bodies can be found in the latest classification guide from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) or on procurepublic. co.

uk. This includes government departments, local authorities, educational institutions, healthcare organisations, and other public sector entities.

Lot 5 of the Heating, Electrical, and Decarbonisation Framework focuses on Decarbonisation and Retrofit Works, with specific relevance to contractors experienced in funded projects, such as the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF). Contractors in this lot will be responsible for delivering retrofit projects aimed at improving the energy efficiency of public sector buildings, particularly social housing. These works may include insulation upgrades, energy-efficient heating system installations, and other measures that reduce carbon emissions and improve energy performance.

Lot 5 will target public sector properties, with a focus on social housing owned or managed by local authorities and housing associations. Contractors must demonstrate expertise in retrofit projects, energy efficiency improvements, and compliance with the SHDF funding requirements. The goal of this lot is to help public sector organisations meet their decarbonisation targets and improve the overall sustainability of their buildings.

The total framework value across all six lots is 90 million GBP, and Lot 5 provides a flexible agreement that allows contractors to select the appropriate CPV codes, regions, and financial capacity criteria suited to their business operations.

Qualified contractors with experience in decarbonisation, retrofit works, and SHDF funded projects are invited to express their interest. Further details and tender participation instructions will be provided when the tender is officially released.
