With commendable efficiency, the contract was awarded on 8th May 2025, and is set to be active from this date until the end of September 2025. The procurement, conducted through a direct method below the threshold without competition, is classified under the services category and covers various regions across the United Kingdom, including the South East and South West among others. This contract, identified as C/REF 00001013, follows legal guidelines per the UKPGA 2023/54 and seeks to upgrade electrical systems to comply with the latest statutory requirements, including the BS7671, 18th Edition, Amendment 3.

This tender presents a notable opportunity for businesses specialising in mechanical and electrical engineering services, providing a platform to engage with government entities such as Historic England.
