UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, located in London, focuses on the GSTT HV Cable Replacement Project. This project involves the replacement of 11 kV feeder cables at Guy’s Hospital, a critical infrastructure task falling under the industry category of electrical installation work. Managed as a limited competition below threshold contract, this procurement stage has reached completion with the supplier Playfords Limited. The contract is active, running from 6 February 2026 to 5 June 2026, with a gross value of £535,061.34.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities within the electrical services sector. Companies skilled in managing electrical installations, particularly those capable of operating in challenging environments like confined spaces, will find this project aligns well with their capabilities. Large-scale enterprises with experience in complex infrastructure projects and those with the ability to mobilise specialised teams, such as confined-space trained operatives and rescue teams, would be particularly well-positioned to compete for similar opportunities in the future.

Notice Information

Notice Title

GSTT HV Cable Replacement Project

Notice Description

The works comprise the replacement of three existing 11 kV Paper Insulated Lead Covered (PILC) feeder cables supplying Guy's Hospital, which are exhibiting insulation oil leakage and present a risk of circuit failure. The project will install new 240 mm2 BS 7835 11 kV LSZH XLPE single-core AWA cables, installed in trefoil formation on new heavy-duty galvanised steel cable ladder systems with appropriately rated trefoil cleats. The new cable routes traverse internal plantrooms, service ducts, service tunnels, ceiling voids and external roof areas. Works within service ducts and tunnels require confined-space trained operatives and a dedicated rescue team.
