Summary of the contracting process

Ofgem bought office pods for its Glasgow office, including supply, delivery and installation. The purpose was to make better use of available space and increase meeting-room capacity. The pods were intended to match those already used in Ofgem’s London office, so consistency between the two locations was part of the requirement. This is primarily a goods requirement, with associated construction, refurbishment and installation activity. Delivery and the related work were in Glasgow, Scotland. Businesses relevant to this requirement include manufacturers, suppliers, fit-out contractors and installation specialists able to provide complete office-pod solutions rather than products alone. Experience in commercial office refurbishment or the installation of prefabricated meeting spaces would be directly applicable to this type of requirement for Ofgem.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Tsunami Axis Ltd through a below-threshold direct award without competition. One lot was awarded. The contract was signed on 16 March 2026 and covered 17 to 31 March 2026. Its awarded contract value was £95,615 excluding VAT (£114,738 including VAT). The recorded final value was £95,615.37 excluding VAT (£114,738.44 including VAT). The contract was terminated on 22 July 2026, with the reason recorded as contract completed. The award concerned office-pod supply, delivery and installation, with associated construction-related, refurbishment and architectural services classifications. Evaluation details are not set out beyond the direct-award route, so there was no competitive tender or published comparison of bids.

This outcome shows Ofgem’s demand for integrated office accommodation solutions: supplying prefabricated pods, transporting them to an operational office and completing the installation and associated refurbishment work. A credible future competitor would need to manage the whole requirement, including product supply, site delivery, installation and coordination with the buyer’s existing office environment. The successful model also indicates the importance of reproducing an established design or specification consistently across locations, rather than offering unrelated office furniture or generic building work. Suppliers with commercial office fit-out capability, experience installing meeting rooms or modular pods, and the operational capacity to coordinate several linked activities would be well placed when this requirement is next considered. Businesses should also be able to demonstrate reliable delivery and installation performance in occupied or functioning office premises.
