Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioners for Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire commissioned electrical testing services for their constabularies. The requirement covers general electrical services for Norfolk and Suffolk, together with Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) for Cambridgeshire. It is divided into two service areas: Norfolk and Suffolk, and Cambridgeshire, with suppliers able to pursue one or both. Work is delivered across Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire. The relevant business activity is electrical inspection, testing and reporting for public-sector buildings and estates. The procurement is jointly relevant to electrical contractors and testing specialists able to operate across these police areas and manage requirements for more than one constabulary.

The procurement has reached award stage. The contract was awarded through an above-threshold open procedure, evaluated on 60% price and 40% quality. L123 trading as Veriserv and ABCA Limitd were named as suppliers for both lots. The recorded award value is £594,534.88 excluding VAT, or £713,441.86 including VAT. The award covers both the Norfolk and Suffolk lot and the Cambridgeshire lot. The awarded contract period is 2 November 2026 to 1 November 2028, with renewals of 12 months, 12 months and 12 months if required, allowing a maximum end date of 1 November 2031. Ten bids were received for Lot 1 and 12 for Lot 2.

This award demonstrates established demand from three neighbouring police authorities for recurring electrical testing and EICR services. A credible future competitor would need practical capacity for planned and responsive electrical inspection work across Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, with the systems and technical staff to produce reliable compliance reports for police estates. The requirement was suitable for SMEs, and suppliers could compete for either service area or both, so a focused regional contractor could position itself around one geography while a larger provider could demonstrate multi-county coverage. Competition was substantial: five final-stage bids were recorded for Norfolk and Suffolk, and seven for Cambridgeshire. Quality as well as price was assessed, making service assurance and delivery capability important.
