Summary of the contracting process

Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine procured electrical services and maintenance support across its Liverpool and Chester estate. The requirement covers planned preventative maintenance, responsive and reactive repairs, safe and compliant electrical works, and minor installation projects supporting the organisation’s operational facilities. It is a facilities electrical services contract, including electrical engineering installation, electrical-system repair and general electrical services. The buyer intended to establish a framework of approved suppliers, providing flexibility, resilience and access to specialist support across its estate. Work is therefore suited to contractors able to cover multiple sites and respond to both planned maintenance programmes and unforeseen repair requirements. The delivery area is the Liverpool and Chester estate, with the buyer based in Liverpool.

The procurement is complete and awarded under an open procedure. One lot was evaluated on an equal 50% price and 50% quality basis, and was suitable for SMEs. The tender deadline was 27 July 2026 at 5pm, with award due by 9 August 2026. Eight bids were received, including three from SMEs. Three suppliers—BBG Electrical Solution Ltd, PCI Electrical Ltd and Consortia Integrated Services Limited—were awarded places on the framework on 21 August 2026. The contract was signed on 2 September 2026, with a value of £60,000 gross (£50,000 excluding tax). The contract runs from 14 September 2026 to 13 September 2027 and may be extended twice for two years each, to 31 July 2031.

This procurement demonstrates established demand from Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine for a broad electrical maintenance capability across operational facilities in Liverpool and Chester. A credible future competitor would need suitably qualified and experienced electrical contractors able to deliver planned preventative maintenance, reactive repairs and minor installation projects, while maintaining safety, compliance and responsive service. The requirement favours businesses with the operational capacity to support an estate rather than only isolated one-off jobs, and with enough resilience to provide specialist cover when required. The process also shows that SME participation is realistic: three of the eight final-stage bidders were SMEs, and all three appointed suppliers are Liverpool-based businesses. Contractors able to evidence quality alongside competitive pricing would be well aligned with this buyer’s evaluation approach.
