Summary of the contracting process

Fife Council procured a framework for road-lighting installation works, classified under CPV 45316110. The scope covers installing street-lighting columns and underground cables, associated electrical works, and disconnecting and removing existing lighting columns. It also includes erecting and removing traffic signs. The framework is intended to provide additional capacity for Fife Council’s in-house Roads Operations, with work delivered through concise work packages as required. The work is delivered in Fife, Scotland. This is a works opportunity for electrical contractors, highways and street-lighting specialists, and civil engineering businesses able to undertake road-lighting and traffic-sign installation. The framework is a multiple-contractor arrangement, with up to six participants, rather than a single works contract.

The open procedure has reached the award stage and the tender is complete. The framework contract was awarded on 27 July 2026 to Pegasus Power & Communications Ltd, Lochwynd Ltd, T & N Gilmartin (Contractors) Ltd, Lightways Contractors Limited and Logan Bruce Ltd. The contract value is £5,300,000. The framework period runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2028, with an option to extend annually for up to a further 24 months. Individual work packages can vary in value but will be below £1,000,000. The procurement’s estimated value was £6,000,000, while the stated framework lot value was £24,000,000. Evaluation weighted price at 80% and quality at 20%. Five bids were recorded, all submitted electronically.

This award shows established demand from Fife Council for recurring street-lighting, electrical and traffic-sign work delivered in manageable work packages. A credible future competitor would need practical experience installing lighting columns and underground cables, carrying out associated electrical works, removing street furniture, and erecting and removing traffic signs in highway environments. The Specification for Highway Works applies, and mandatory National Highway Sector Scheme requirements apply to the relevant works. A business relying on subcontractors can use subcontractors that hold the required registration where applicable. The selection process also required economic and technical capability, staff names and qualifications, and compliance with the contract’s performance appraisal arrangements. The successful field included five SMEs, indicating that suitably capable specialist contractors can compete alongside larger infrastructure businesses.
