In plain English

NHS Grampian wants a temporary boiler hired, delivered, installed, connected, tested, maintained and later removed at Turner Hospital in Keith, Banffshire, to provide winter heating backup. The boiler must deliver at least 205 kW (about 700,000 BTU/h), and a dual-fuel gas and oil unit is preferred.

What the buyer wants

• Propose a specific boiler (manufacturer and model) with its rated output, fuel arrangement, efficiency rating, modulation range and supporting technical data • Provide a complete operational solution: mobilisation, temporary water and fuel connections, electrical connections, controls, flue arrangements, testing and commissioning • Carry out planned maintenance and breakdown support during the hire, then decommission and remove the plant, after a mandatory pre-installation site survey following contract award

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The notice does not state any qualifications, insurance levels or past experience requirements, but the bidder must be able to supply a boiler of at least 205 kW with full technical data, and deliver and run the whole temporary plant including installation, commissioning, maintenance and breakdown support, which a small business without boiler hire equipment and in-house heating engineering capacity would likely struggle to meet.

Always check the tender documents.
