[DescrProcurement]

This ITT is issued by RMBC (“the Council”) in connection with the competitive procurement for technical enabling works and connection to a low carbon heat network, followed by the subsequent supply of heat to an initial 5 buildings within the Council’s estate (namely Town Hall, Civic Theatre, Clifton Park Museum, Orchard Centre and Riverside House). The scope of this procurement does allow for the potential for the following additional buildings to be added to the network at a later date during the terms of this arrangement (Vine Close Boiler House (district heating residential supply), St Anns Boiler House (district heating residential supply), Beeversleigh Flats, Bailey House, Fusion Magna BIC, Eric Manns Building, Chatham Villas – Doncaster Gate, Clifton Park Garden Building and Centenary Market).
The Council will pay for the technical enabling works to its estate for the 5 buildings, but beyond this it is important to note that the Council will be a customer of heat only, and does not intend to invest capital or form any partnership with potential heat network developers to install and manage the heat network in Rotherham.
The technical enabling works component of the contract is expected to commence September 2024 and requires completion by 31 March 2025 to comply with the Council's funding obligations to Salix in respect of Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS) funding.
Works to fully install the heat network are expected to go beyond this date, but connection to the heat network must be achieved by no later than 31 March 2026 for the supply of heat from this date at the latest.

[AppealsLodging]

[AppealsDeadline]: 
Precise information on deadline(s) for lodging appeals: The Contracting Authority will incorporate a minimum 10 calendar day standstill period at the point information on the award of the Contract is communicated to tenderers. Applicants who are unsuccessful shall be informed by the Contracting Authority as soon as possible after the decision has been made as to the reasons why the applicant was unsuccessful. If an appeal regarding the award of the contract has not been successfully resolved, the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as amended) provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by breach of the rules to take legal action. Any such action must be brought within the applicable limitation period. Where a contract has not been entered into, the Court may order the setting aside of the award decision or order the Contracting Authority to amend any document and may award damages. If the Contract has been entered into, the Court may, depending on the circumstances, award damages, make a declaration of ineffectiveness, order the Contracting Authority to pay a fine, and/or order that the duration of the Contract be shortened. The purpose of the standstill period referred to above is to allow the parties to apply to the Courts to set aside the award decision before the contract is entered into.
