This tender falls under the industry category of "Electrical wiring and fitting work" (CPV 45311000) with additional classification in "Installation services of electrical equipment" (CPV 51110000). The procurement method was a selective call-off from a framework agreement with Eastern Procurement Limited (EPL).

As no Cabinet meeting was held in June 2024 due to the General Election, an Urgent Decision was made for a variation to the contract. The Chief Executive of Norwich City Council took this decision following consultation with the Leader of the Council, leaders of all political groups, chair of Scrutiny Committee, the Portfolio Holder for Housing, Monitoring Officer and the Chief Finance Officer. Jul24 - the contract was varied for the period to 30 June 2025 with an increased awarded contract value of PS1,299,000.00. On 13/11/2024 - a meeting of Cabinet was held. It was noted the dates of the initial contract period should be 01/04/2024 to 31/03/2025 as originally awarded 28/03/2024 (the date up to 30/06/2025 as varied in July24 was incorrect). It was also approved that an additional value of PS100,000 was needed to be able to complete the works programme to 31/03/2025. In addition, the optional extension option from 01/04/2025 to 31/03/2026 was approved at a value of PS1,515,000. Contract total for full 2 years of PS3,215,000.00. As awarded under a Framework, the full procurement exercise is fully compliant with PCR 2015."
