Summary of the contracting process

Trent and Dove Housing is seeking suppliers for the proposed procurement of Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) services, which cover approximately 6,300 properties in the United Kingdom. This procurement process is in the planning stage with pre-market engagement currently underway, managed by GBS Procure Limited on behalf of Trent and Dove. The main procurement category is works, specifically within technical inspection and testing services, repair and maintenance services of electrical building installations, and electrical installation work. The deadline for submitting participation in the preliminary market engagement is set for 22 June 2026, with the contract anticipated to commence on 1 April 2027. The contract is expected to extend over a three-year period, with possible extensions of up to two additional years. The feedback from this engagement will outline the procurement strategy and tender documentation.

The opportunities for business growth through this tender are significant, particularly for SMEs specializing in electrical safety and compliance services. The services required for maintaining 100% electrical compliance in domestic properties not only include regular inspection, testing, and certification, but also cover defect rectification and digital compliance solutions. Businesses with expertise in resident engagement, digital certification, and asset management will be well-suited to compete, especially those interested in contributing to sustainability initiatives and adapting to future regulatory changes. Submitting a response could potentially position a business favourably for the subsequent procurement stages, although it does not guarantee an advantage in further processes.
