two.2.4) Description of the procurement at the time of conclusion of the contract:
This lot focuses on the design, selection, installation and commissioning of domestic boiler based heating systems for central heating, hot water, and other related applications. Typically this will be gas and oil based systems but may also include alternative fuel systems such as biomass and emerging technologies such as hydrogen blend.
Installations may be required for a range of building types, including residential, commercial, community and other public buildings. Typically these works will be undertaken on existing buildings but may also be on new builds or extensions to existing properties.
Key tasks include supporting the client in the surveying, assessment, design, selection (of key systems and components), specification development, installation of systems, and thorough commissioning, testing, and handover processes.
Works may also involve adapting existing building features to ensure the system is properly integrated, and may include associated works that would be beneficial and pragmatic to complete alongside the installation of the new system or to secure grant funding.
If requested by the client (and where an appointed company has the capacity and competency to do so), the scope for this lot can extend to subsequent inspection, servicing and maintenance of any system installed by the appointed company.
