Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust procured electrical engineering services for the replacement of Electrical Substation 9 and an upgrade to the Evelina standby power system in London. The work covers obsolete low-voltage electrical switch panels and interlinked standby generators, with the aim of providing safe, reliable power for existing electrical services and supporting expansion of the Evelina Children's Hospital for cancer treatment. The requirement includes electrical power systems design services, classified under CPV 71323100, together with the associated replacement and upgrade works needed to improve system resilience and reduce reliance on hired temporary generators.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Eta Projects Limited. The contract was awarded on 1 November 2025 for £3,978,000, with delivery from 1 November 2025 to 31 August 2026. The estimated value range was £3,978,000 to £3,978,198. It was run as a selective procurement and awarded as a call-off from the HTE Framework Consultancy Solutions and Advisory Services 2023/S 000-024003. The tender submission deadline was 31 October 2025 at 12:00 UTC. The published outcome identifies one active award to Eta Projects Limited; the procurement record does not set out separate lots or a detailed scoring breakdown.

This award demonstrates demand from a major NHS trust for suppliers able to combine electrical power systems design with complex low-voltage infrastructure and standby generation upgrades in a live hospital environment. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need practical expertise in replacing obsolete switch panels, integrating interlinked generators, improving resilience and supporting increased clinical power demand. Experience of safety-critical healthcare estates, planned shutdowns, temporary power arrangements and coordination with hospital stakeholders would strengthen a bid. The awarded route also shows the importance of access to, and demonstrable capability under, relevant healthcare framework agreements for this buyer’s specialist electrical engineering requirements.

Notice Information

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
