Summary of the contracting process

Salvation Army Housing Association procured domestic and commercial electrical services across three geographic areas in England. The requirement covers electrical installation, and the repair and maintenance of electrical building installations, including electrical and mechanical building installations. The North area covers the North of England; London and South East covers London and the South East; and South West covers the South West. The housing association is the buyer, with Faithorn Farrell Timms acting as procurement consultant. This is a services requirement for contractors able to deliver electrical works and maintenance across housing properties and associated commercial premises in the relevant geographic area. Suppliers could submit responses for any or all of the three areas, with no stated limit on awards.

The procurement is complete and has reached award. It used an above-threshold open procedure. Lot 1, North, was awarded to ABCA Systems Limited for £700,000 excluding VAT (£840,000 including VAT). Lot 2, London and South East, was awarded to P.F.L. Electrical Ltd for £583,333 excluding VAT (£700,000 including VAT). The award date was 10 August 2026, with a standstill period ending 4 September 2026 and scheduled signature by 30 October 2026. Both contracts are planned to run from 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2029, with extensions of up to two further periods of two years, giving a maximum end date of 30 November 2033. Lot 3, South West, is shown as having an active award outcome.

This procurement demonstrates sustained demand from Salvation Army Housing Association for geographically managed electrical installation, repair and maintenance services in domestic and commercial settings. It is relevant to electrical contractors with the operational capacity to cover a defined English region and to manage both planned and responsive building-services work. The opportunity was explicitly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so smaller regional providers may be credible competitors where their resources match the area covered. The evaluation placed 40% on price and 60% on quality: 25% for written responses and 35% for presented responses. A future competitor would therefore need competitive pricing, strong written method statements and the ability to present its service approach convincingly.
