Summary of the contracting process

Canterbury City Council is undertaking a public procurement process titled "Commercial and Operational EICR and Electrical Work," aimed at appointing a supplier for electrical inspection and testing services. This falls broadly under the industry category of Repair and Maintenance Services. Located in Canterbury, United Kingdom, the procurement process has reached the award stage, having commenced with an open competition suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The awarded contract, announced on 1 December 2025, spans three years with the potential for an extension up to seven years. The contract work is valued at £150,000 with a gross amount of £180,000, focusing on electrical repair and maintenance for sub-central government public authority needs in the UKJ4 region.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for businesses specializing in electrical services, particularly SMEs. The project requires a keen focus on quality, with an assessment ratio favouring 80% cost and 20% quality, ensuring value for money while maintaining service standards. Companies with expertise in electrical machinery repair and maintenance can capitalize on this opportunity by delivering superior financial performance and meeting quality criteria. Qualified suppliers stand to gain a significant contract that not only provides financial growth but also strengthens their industry position through association with a reputable local council like Canterbury City Council. Moreover, beyond immediate financial benefits, the project's potential extension ensures sustained engagement and future business continuity.
