Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire & Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service commissioned construction and electrical works for additional electric vehicle infrastructure at a site in Eastleigh. The scheme covered seven dual 22kVA electric vehicle chargers, creating 14 additional light-vehicle parking spaces, together with a 160A TPN MCCB installation in the existing switchboard. It also included relocating five street-lighting columns, constructing a new vehicle turning circle serving a workshop service bay, associated builders’ work and construction of the proposed parking bays. This is a works contract involving vehicle electrical equipment, electrical supplies, landscaping and parking-area construction. The requirement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and was intended to support charging provision and associated site improvements for the service.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 18 June 2026 following a restricted procedure above the threshold, using a selective procurement route. Bids had to be submitted by 1 March 2026 at 09:00. The estimated procurement value was between £185,450 and £277,997 including the stated minimum and maximum estimates. Rocon Contractors LTD was selected for an award valued at £185,450. The contract period ran from 18 June 2026 to 24 July 2026. The award was active, and the award outcome was published on 29 July 2026. The published information identifies the successful supplier and the delivery scope, while the available procurement details do not set out a separate narrative of the evaluation criteria.

This award indicates demand for contractors able to combine electrical installation, civil engineering and site-construction skills in an operational fire and rescue environment. A credible future competitor would need experience installing dual electric vehicle charging equipment and connecting substantial electrical apparatus to an existing switchboard, alongside delivering parking bays, lighting-column relocation, vehicle manoeuvring areas and associated builders’ work. The requirement suits an SME able to manage several coordinated trades and complete a compact infrastructure project through to construction. Relevant capability includes safe work around existing electrical systems, practical site logistics, excavation and surfacing, external lighting and charger installation, with effective coordination between electrical, landscaping and building activities.
