The procurement process has reached the award stage as of 3 August 2026, with the award being made through the HTE framework for Consultancy Solutions and Advisory Services. The contract started on 1 November 2025 and will run until 31 August 2026.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in electrical power systems design, particularly those with expertise in upgrading substations and standby power systems. Although the awarded supplier, ETA Projects Ltd, is already confirmed, similar future contracts could benefit small to medium enterprises that specialise in electrical and infrastructure projects, particularly those offering innovative solutions to enhance power resilience and efficiency in healthcare facilities. Participating in such framework agreements can enable businesses to gain entry into a broader range of public sector opportunities, thereby bolstering their market presence and contributing to business growth in the healthcare infrastructure domain.

Notice Title

Substation 9 LV Panel & Generator Replacement and Evelina Standby Power

Notice Description

The Trust has a requirement for the replacement of Electrical Substation 9 and an upgrade to the Evelina standby power system. The objective of the project is to remove the obsolescence risk for the existing LV electrical switch panels, and interlinked stand-by generators to meet the requirements of the existing electrical services. This requirement needs to be delivered to allow for the expansion for the 'Evelina PTC' and the additional power requirements and system resilience that this project demands. This paper recommends the award of a contract to ETA Projects Ltd. The new contract will help provide the Trust with a safe and reliable source of power into the future removing the reliance on hired in temporary generators and the expansion of the Evelina Children's Hospital for cancer treatment. This was awarded through the HTE framework Consultancy Solutions and Advisory Services 2023/S 000-024003
