Summary of the contracting process

Trinity House commissioned works to paint Flatholm Lighthouse, described as painting work under CPV 45442100. The requirement is for the painting of the lighthouse, rather than a supply-only contract or a general facilities service. The buying organisation is Trinity House, the UK body named for this procurement. The delivery location is London, United Kingdom. This is a works requirement suited to businesses that undertake specialist or commercial painting projects and can manage the preparation, application and completion of painting works at a lighthouse site. The title identifies the requirement as T0422 – CM116 Flatholm Lighthouse Painting, giving it a specific asset and project reference for suppliers tracking Trinity House requirements.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective restricted procedure. The tender deadline was 30 July 2026, and the contract was awarded on that date to IAN WILLIAMS. The awarded value is £76,862.76, with the same amount recorded as the overall estimated tender value. The contract period runs from 14 September 2027 to 31 October 2027. The requirement was classified as works and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Evaluation details recorded for the procurement include the restricted procedure and selective method. Trinity House’s award is active, while the tender is complete, so the outcome is a completed selection rather than an opportunity to submit a bid.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a defined Trinity House requirement for lighthouse painting works delivered within a concentrated project period and at a scale suitable for an SME. A credible future competitor would need practical painting capability, experience planning and delivering work on lighthouse or similarly specialist, exposed or operational assets, and the capacity to complete the works within the required programme. Evidence of safe working, suitable preparation and coating methods, quality control, supervision and reliable project management would strengthen its position. Suppliers should also be able to engage through a restricted procedure, meet Trinity House’s pre-qualification requirements and present a clear, deliverable method for painting the specified asset.
