Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Northamptonshire Partnership Homes has completed the procurement process for emergency lighting compliance checks in West Northamptonshire, under the industry category of "Repair and maintenance services of electrical building installations" (CPV: 50711000). This contract, valued at £600,000, was awarded on 8th May 2025 to Fieldway Supplies Limited, following a procurement method driven by extreme urgency without prior publication of a call for competition. The process involved meeting conditions stated in the directive due to previously unaddressed fire safety compliance obligations in residential buildings. The procurement process reached the "Award" stage, confirming the completion of the tender for ongoing annual and monthly emergency lighting checks on specified residential blocks.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for service providers in the field of electrical installation maintenance, especially those specialising in emergency systems compliance and testing. SMEs that can rapidly mobilise resources and ensure strict compliance with safety regulations stand to benefit greatly from such contracts. The procurement's focus on direct awards through framework suppliers also suggests future opportunities for businesses already engaged in local frameworks. By securing contracts like this one awarded to Fieldway Supplies Limited, firms can position themselves as preferred suppliers for similar future procurements.

Notice Description

Compliance checks and remedial works.

Lot Information

Lot 1

To complete annual and monthly Emergency Lighting compliance testing on 387 blocks of flats, all 2 storey and under.

Procurement Information

During an audit of our Fire Safety Compliance processes it was highlighted that annual and monthly testing on Emergency Lighting on 3 storey and above blocks of flats was required and had not historically been carried out. Contractors were urgently required to carry out annual and monthly testing to ensure the safety of tenants in social housing. Although a full procurement process was not completed, the market was approached and meetings held with the top ranked suppliers from three frameworks, these allowed for Direct Award. Bids were received from four suppliers. All had capacity to complete the work and gave us confidence that they could. The final decision was made on price.
