Summary of the contracting process

Hopwood Hall College procured electrical services from a qualified electrician for reactive work and maintenance across its Rochdale and Middleton campuses. The requirement covers electrical services and other electrical installation work. It is a single service requirement for the college’s two campus sites, rather than a general construction project. The buyer is Hopwood Hall College, based in Rochdale. The work supports the upkeep and repair of the college’s electrical systems across both locations.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to 3GEN Electrical Ltd. The award was made on 6 August 2026, and the contract was signed on 25 September 2026. Its value is £300,000 excluding VAT (£360,000 including VAT). The signed contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029, with two optional 12-month extensions, allowing continuation until 30 September 2031. The college used an open procedure. It evaluated bids on technical quality, weighted at 40%, and price, weighted at 60%. Economic and technical selection criteria applied; tenderers were directed to the procurement documents for the detailed requirements. There was one lot, and 18 bids reached the final stage.

For electrical contractors, this award shows recurring demand from Hopwood Hall College for a qualified provider able to handle both reactive electrical maintenance and related installation work across its Rochdale and Middleton campuses. A credible competitor would need the technical capability and capacity to respond to maintenance requirements at two college sites, alongside the commercial ability to offer a competitive price. The evaluation gave price the greater weighting, while technical quality still formed a substantial part of the decision, so suppliers need to demonstrate sound delivery methods as well as value. The competition attracted 18 final-stage bids, indicating that suppliers should be prepared to compete against a substantial field. The buyer marked the requirement as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.
