Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process for IT Cabling at the UKAEA Culham Site, managed by the UK Atomic Energy Authority, has reached its completion. Located in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom, this project falls under the industry category of services, with additional procurement categories including works. The procurement method employed was an open process, specifically a competitive flexible procedure, covering the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA). The tender process began with stage one submissions concluding on 1 July 2025, followed by a second stage ending on 21 August 2025. An active contract was subsequently awarded to Calibre Cabling Services Ltd on 14 November 2025, with contract operations commencing on 18 November 2025 and set to extend, potentially, until 2030. The contract is valued at £800,000, with a gross amount of £960,000, and includes provisions for renewal.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in IT cabling and related services. The project involves installation, maintenance, and upgrading of network cabling infrastructure, ideal for firms capable of managing complex office refurbishments and new installations. Companies with expertise in health and safety compliance, building regulations, and LAN services would be well-suited to contribute to such endeavours. Particularly, small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in computer network services, repair and maintenance, and installation services could benefit from engaging with similar future contracts. The involvement of a qualified and experienced team will be crucial to handle the technical demands and compliance aspects of this specialised IT services project.
