Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Essex Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner Fire and Rescue Authority procured electrical installation works to fit rapid generator connection points at 25 sites. The connections are intended to enable generators to be installed and connected during a potential prolonged power outage. The work is in the East of England. The requirement sits within the wider field of electrical installation and was run through the Crescent Purchasing Consortium Minor Works DPS 2, under its electrical works category. The contract is specific to resilient power arrangements across the fire and rescue authority’s sites.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Every Project Counts Ltd. The award was made on 11 September 2026, for £93,631.84. The contract period runs from 30 September 2026 to 30 March 2027. The original tender deadline was 24 June 2026. The requirement was awarded through the Crescent Purchasing Consortium Minor Works DPS 2, using its electrical works category. The published information identifies the work as electrical installation, but gives no further account of how bids were evaluated. The procurement was classified as works and marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award demonstrates demand from Essex’s fire and rescue authority for electrical works supporting continuity of power at multiple sites. Suppliers seeking to compete for a similar requirement would need to deliver rapid generator connection points and associated installation works across a dispersed estate, with the ability to support emergency power arrangements during a prolonged outage. The successful route was the electrical works category of the Crescent Purchasing Consortium Minor Works DPS 2, so relevant experience within that route would be important. The authority marked this procurement unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises; businesses should therefore consider whether their scale and delivery capacity match a multi-site public-sector works contract of this kind.
