Summary of the contracting process

The Pioneer Housing and Community Group Limited procured electrical inspection and remedial works for its housing and community properties in Birmingham. The requirement covers Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) and associated remedial work across 2,512 homes, 115 blocks and five public buildings. This is a substantial, multi-property programme combining inspection with follow-up electrical repairs, rather than a single-site installation project. The work is classified as electrical installation work (CPV 45310000).

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to LRG Electrical Ltd, an SME. The buyer used an open competition below the applicable threshold. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 4 September 2029, with extensions available at the buyer’s discretion for a potential total term of seven years, ending by 3 October 2033. The awarded contract value is £1.89 million including VAT. Bids were assessed on price (40%), works delivery (20%), contract management (15%), customer care (15%) and social value (10%). The tender deadline was 13 March 2026 at 12 noon; the enquiry deadline was 6 March 2026 at 12 noon.

For suppliers preparing for comparable electrical maintenance work with this housing group, credibility will depend on delivering consistent EICR inspections and remedial works across a large, varied property portfolio: homes, blocks and public buildings. The evaluation placed 60% of the weighting on quality, including delivery, contract management, customer care and social value, so a strong future competitor would need evidence of reliable scheduling and completion, effective oversight of a dispersed programme, and responsive service for residents and building users. Price remained a major factor, accounting for 40%, so efficient delivery and cost control would also matter. The award to an SME demonstrates that a supplier of this scale was considered suitable for the requirement; businesses with capacity to manage multi-year electrical work across many properties are well placed to compete.
