Summary of the contracting process

The City & County of Swansea commissioned electrical rewiring works at YGG Gellionen primary school, Clydach, Swansea. The project covers the school’s main block and includes the supply, installation, testing, setting to work and commissioning of the electrical engineering services described in the specification and associated drawings. The work falls within electrical installation, wiring and fitting. It is a public-sector building works requirement for a school site in Swansea, suitable for electrical contractors able to manage a complete installation and commissioning package. The buyer is the City & County of Swansea, a Welsh local authority. The procurement was structured as one lot and included works classified under CPV 45310000, electrical installation work.

This below-threshold procurement used an open competition and has been awarded. The contract was signed on 20 July 2026, with the award made to J.W. Bowkett (Electrical Installations) Limited. The awarded contract value is £129,078.58 excluding VAT, or £154,894.30 including VAT. The contract runs from 21 July 2026 to 1 September 2026. The tender’s estimated value was £130,000 excluding VAT, or £156,000 including VAT. The completed evaluation weighted price at 70%, with quality weighted at 30%: 15% for compliance with the CDM Regulations 2015 and 15% for project management. The tender deadline was 11 June 2026, and clarification enquiries closed on 8 June 2026. The contract is active.

This award indicates demand from the City & County of Swansea for small to medium-sized electrical contractors able to deliver school-building rewiring as a complete works package. A credible competitor would need practical capability in electrical installation and wiring, together with the resources to supply materials, install systems, test them, set them to work and complete commissioning against drawings and a formal specification. The evaluation shows that price is the dominant commercial factor, so accurate pricing and control of compensation-event costs would be important. Quality evidence would need to address compliance with the CDM Regulations 2015 and demonstrate effective project management. The opportunity was identified as suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, indicating that smaller organisations with relevant construction and electrical delivery experience could compete.
