Summary of the contracting process

Durham County Council has successfully completed the procurement process for the "Framework for Independent Connection Provision (ICP) - Street Lighting". This initiative falls under the public-sector category and focuses on electrical engineering installation and maintenance services for public-lighting installations and traffic lights across the UKC region of the United Kingdom. The procurement process, started as an open competition under the "Below threshold" procurement method, led to the award of a contract to QUANTUM POWER CONNECTIONS LIMITED as the sole supplier. The contract commenced on 1 April 2026 and is set to run until 31 March 2028, with the potential for renewal for an additional 24 months, reaching a maximum end date of 31 March 2030.

This procurement offers a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in electrical engineering and public lighting services. Local SMEs and larger firms with expertise in these areas could benefit by forming alliances with the awarded supplier or subcontracting, thus enhancing their portfolio and market presence. The project's framework agreement allows direct call-offs as per the Council's requirements, providing steady work flow and predictability, which can be particularly advantageous for companies looking to expand their service offerings within Durham County Council's jurisdiction. Businesses from the UKC region that have entered into an Access Agreement or Procurement SLA with the Council will have exclusive access to this opportunity, allowing them to tap into public sector contracts efficiently.
