Summary of the contracting process

The Government Commercial Agency, acting on behalf of Suffolk County Council, has successfully completed the procurement process for the project titled "Provision and Operation of EV Chargepoints (LEVI Capital Project)." This procurement falls within the goods industry category, specifically targeting electric vehicle charging infrastructure. The project location is set in the East of England, United Kingdom. The procurement process followed a selective method using a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender phase concluded on 1st August 2025, with the award being active since 26th February 2026. The contract period is from 22nd October 2025 to 21st October 2040, with a total contract value of £1,839,950, subsidised by a grant from LEVI.

This procurement creates significant opportunities for businesses in the electric vehicle infrastructure sector, particularly those with the capability to install, maintain, own, and operate charging points. Large-scale enterprises such as URBAN FOX NETWORKS (UK) LIMITED, which secured the contract, are well-suited for such projects due to the scale and scope of operations required. The long-term contract period offers stability and potential for growth, making it an attractive proposition for large enterprises looking to establish or expand their presence in the EV charging market. SMEs and VCSEs may find this opportunity less suitable due to the scale and operational demands.
