Summary of the contracting process

Barcud Shared Services, working with Bron Afon Community Housing, procured full electrical rewires to 42 Bron Afon properties in the borough of Torfaen, Wales. This is electrical installation and associated repair and maintenance work on housing properties. The procurement is classified as works, covering the installation, renewal and maintenance of building electrical systems. The requirement is focused on delivering complete rewires rather than isolated repairs or routine servicing. It is relevant to electrical contractors with the capability to plan and carry out multiple domestic property rewires, manage associated construction activities and complete work across Torfaen. The buyer is Barcud Shared Services, a public undertaking, and Bron Afon Community Housing is the participating housing organisation.

The procurement is complete and awarded following a below-threshold open competition. One lot covered the requirement. Nine bids were received, including nine from SMEs. The award was made to Lightening Solutions Wales on 22 April 2026 for £193,000 excluding VAT (£231,600 including VAT). The award contract period was 17 June to 4 September 2026. A contract was signed on 28 April 2026, with a recorded contract value of £166,316.72 excluding VAT (£199,580.06 including VAT) and a contract period of 18 May to 21 August 2026. The tender submission deadline was 31 March 2026 at noon, following an amendment to the closing date. Evaluation weighted price at 60% and quality at 40%, covering previous experience, contract delivery, quality assurance, and health and safety.

This procurement demonstrates demand from a Welsh community housing organisation for a concentrated programme of domestic electrical rewires across 42 properties. It indicates that an SME electrical contractor can compete successfully for this type of housing works, with the appointed supplier recorded as an SME. A credible future supplier would need demonstrable previous experience in comparable electrical rewiring, a reliable approach to contract delivery, robust quality assurance and strong health and safety controls. The evaluation gave substantial weight to quality as well as price, so capability to evidence safe, consistent workmanship and effective programme management would matter alongside cost competitiveness. Contractors serving Torfaen or the wider Welsh housing market may find this buyer and requirement relevant when monitoring similar requirements.
