The Diocese of Norwich Education and Academies Trust is inviting tenders for a project to upgrade LED lighting in three schools during the summer 2026 holiday period. This initiative falls under the category of electrical installation work, valued at approximately £60,000 gross, with a focus on completing the work prior to the new academic year. Located in Norwich, UK, the procurement process employs an open method suitable for below-threshold open competition. Interested parties must submit their tenders by 11th May 2026. The contact point for this tender is Darren Williams, reachable at Darren.williams@donesc.org, and further information is available through the MultiQuote procurement platform.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for electrical installation and energy efficiency companies, especially those experienced with LED retrofitting projects, to expand their business by securing a contract with a reputable educational body. The project not only promises financial benefits but also enhances the service portfolio and credibility of the contractor in the public sector. The project encourages participation from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), providing a potentially significant business growth avenue for firms in these categories. The award criteria balance price (60%) and quality (40%), making it essential for bidders to design competitive offers that marry cost-effectiveness with high standards of work.
