Summary of the contracting process

Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured the supply and installation of a primary 400A TPN low-voltage electrical supply for the Pathology department at Gloucestershire Royal Hospital in Gloucester. The work covers power distribution cables, including routing the cables through an existing 150mm duct behind the North Substation, trenching across the staff car park and around the plant compound, and entering the plant room. The installation continues through the undercroft to Pathology, where the cables are terminated in a new low-voltage switch panel. This is an electrical infrastructure service rather than a straightforward cable supply, requiring coordinated cable installation, external trenching and connection into existing hospital infrastructure. The procurement is classified under CPV 31320000, power distribution cables.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust awarded the contract to Constellia Limited on 28 August 2026. The awarded value is £344,298.35. The contract period runs from 30 June 2026 to 30 September 2026, with the tender submission deadline having been 29 June 2026 at 12:00. The procurement was categorised as a services contract and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active, and the awarded value and contract period match the original procurement value and planned contract dates. The work relates to the Trust’s Pathology electrical supply at Gloucester.

This award indicates demand from Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for specialist electrical contractors able to deliver substantial low-voltage power infrastructure inside a live hospital estate. Credible suppliers for a future requirement would need experience supplying and installing high-capacity three-phase-and-neutral electrical systems, routing cables through existing ducts and constrained plant areas, carrying out trenching and reinstatement, and terminating supplies into new low-voltage switchgear. Capability to coordinate safely around staff parking, plant compounds, undercroft spaces and clinical facilities would be important. The requirement also suits an SME-sized contractor, particularly one able to manage the full installation package rather than only supply cable. Experience of complex healthcare or other operational-site environments would strengthen a competitor’s position, although no specific accreditation is identified here.
