Summary of the contracting process

Sheffield City Council is conducting the "SH06063 - Council Housing Electrical Upgrade Programme Phase 2" tender, focused on electrical installation work within its housing portfolio, including houses, flats, and bungalows. The procurement process is currently in the award stage, having completed on 6th July 2021, with a contract value of approximately £20.2 million. Key procurement methods include a selective/restricted procedure, allowing for targeted bidding from qualified contractors. The successful contractor will be responsible for surveying and upgrading existing electrical installations to meet modern safety and quality standards, with significant focus on tenant liaison.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses engaged in electrical installations, particularly those with experience in residential projects and tenant communication. Companies that excel in delivering whole-house electrical upgrades, addressing health and safety concerns, and ensuring compliance with regulatory standards will find this project aligns closely with their capabilities. Given the scale of the works involved and the emphasis on quality and safety, subcontracting or partnership arrangements could also benefit smaller enterprises looking to enter the public procurement space.

Notice Title

SH06063 - COUNCIL HOUSING ELECTRICAL UPGRADE PROGRAMME PHASE 2

Notice Description

The programme involves testing and upgrading electrical installations within Sheffield City Council's housing stock to ensure a modern standard. The scheme incorporates a range of dwellings including housing, flats and bungalows. The contractor will be requested to carry out a survey of the existing installations and an associated Electrical Condition Report which will then determine the rectification works required. As a result, the Contractor will need to gain access to each property on 2 occasions; to survey the property and subsequently to complete the works. However, it should be noted that any works deemed urgent due to Health and Safety concerns (category 1 or 2) will be carried out immediately. It is therefore essential that a Contractor that is experienced in tenant liaison is secured, as this is crucial to the successful delivery of the project. The scope of work will include, but not be limited to, the following Statutory or Regulatory Requirements: * Install Isolation Switch (where necessary) * Carry out an initial periodic condition test and report * Address Category 1, 2 and 3 issues identified by the periodic test * Ensure earth bonding is adequate (where necessary) * Install earth wiring to lighting circuits (where necessary) * Install Hard Wired Smoke alarms * Carry out a final periodic test (if further work carried out) to verify all electrics are operating correctly * Replace consumer units (where necessary only) to provide improved RCD protection and safety for residents * Install additional sockets and / or improve the spread of sockets - many properties have not had additional sockets installed for 50 years. They therefore rely heavily on extension cables, which are a fire risk * Install Carbon Monoxide Detectors * Install external lighting to houses, bungalows & flats (where no communal lighting presently) - this will improve tenants' quality of life
