In plain English
The Royal Household wants a contractor to replace the old gas boilers and hot water equipment in the boiler room serving the offices at Kensington Palace with new, more efficient condensing boilers. The work also covers the pipework, flues, gas supply, electrics and radiator valves that connect to the new system, plus making good and redecorating the room afterwards. The system is being designed so it can later connect to a district heat network.
What the buyer wants
• Remove and dispose of the existing boilers, plant and redundant equipment, then supply, install, test and commission the new condensing boilers, hot water cylinders, plate heat exchangers, pipework and valves. • Survey the existing flues and replace or reline them as needed, assess the gas supply and carry out any upgrades, including replacing the old mechanical gas drop safety valves with electrically operated solenoid valves. • Remove and replace the electrical installations needed for the new plant, clean, flush and dose the heating system, replace all thermostatic radiator valves and lockshield valves, do the builders' work and redecoration, and hand over all certification, operation and maintenance manuals.
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The scope combines heating, gas, flue, electrical and decorating work in one contract with a value of £325,000, so a small business would most likely be ruled out unless it can deliver most of these trades itself or through reliable subcontractors and show the relevant certification.
