Summary of the contracting process

Hull City Council is procuring LED street lanterns for street-lighting use in Hull. The requirement is for lighting equipment and electric lamps, specifically exterior LED lanterns and associated street-lighting equipment (CPV 34928500). YPO is purchasing on behalf of Hull City Council and other eligible public authorities through its Street Lighting Products and Services framework. This particular call-off concerns the supply of lanterns under the framework’s electrical supplies lot. The buying organisation is Hull City Council, with delivery in Hull. The requirement is a goods contract rather than a works, installation, maintenance or consultancy service. It is therefore most relevant to manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers of LED street-lighting lanterns able to supply a local authority through a public-sector framework arrangement.

The procurement is complete and awarded. Hull City Council used a direct award from YPO Framework 1259, under Lot 1 for electrical supplies and cables, rather than running a new open competition. TRT Lighting Limited was selected as supplier for the LED street lantern requirement. The award date was 21 September 2026, and the contract was signed on 21 September 2026. The contract value is £250,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The anticipated contract period is from 23 September 2026 to 22 September 2031. The wider framework was evaluated using price, with a 100% price criterion recorded for the electrical supplies lot. One electronic bid was recorded for this specific award. The framework route includes a minimum 10-calendar-day standstill period following award notification.

This award shows established demand from Hull City Council for a substantial supply of LED street lanterns, sourced through a public-sector lighting framework and awarded by direct call-off. A credible future supplier would need a dependable range of LED street-lighting lanterns, the ability to meet local-authority specifications and sufficient manufacturing, stockholding and distribution capacity for a multi-year supply requirement. Experience of supplying councils or framework purchasing organisations would help, particularly where orders need to be fulfilled consistently and supported by clear product information. The competition record also indicates that price is decisive for this electrical-supplies requirement, so suppliers would need competitive pricing alongside reliable delivery and compliance with public procurement exclusion requirements. Framework eligibility or access to an equivalent public-sector purchasing route would be commercially important.
