Summary of the contracting process

Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Authority bought servicing and maintenance for generators and uninterruptible power supply (UPS) equipment across its Dorset and Wiltshire estate. The requirement covers keeping backup power systems operational, including generator repair and maintenance and UPS servicing. The buyer is the fire and rescue authority serving those counties. The contract is a single service requirement, rather than separate geographic or equipment lots, and the award also identifies generator maintenance as part of the work. The equipment supports the Authority’s estate, so the service is relevant to suppliers able to maintain backup power infrastructure across multiple sites in Dorset and Wiltshire.

The procurement is complete and awarded to Pharos Generator Services Ltd; the contract is active and signed. It was run as an open, below-threshold competition, with bids assessed on price (70%), quality (20%) and social value (10%). The tender deadline was 10 July 2026 at noon. The contract was signed on 21 September 2026 and runs from 21 September 2026 to 20 September 2029, with an option to extend for a further 12 months. The awarded contract value is £39,737.47 gross (£33,114.56 excluding tax). It covers one lot. The supplier must provide generator and UPS servicing across the Authority’s Dorset and Wiltshire estate.

This award shows demand from Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Authority for ongoing servicing of generators and uninterruptible power supplies across its estate. A credible competitor would need practical capability in generator maintenance and repair, together with the technical ability to service UPS equipment and support dependable backup power across multiple sites. The award went to a specialist generator services company, indicating that relevant service expertise is central to the requirement. The previous competition placed the greatest weight on price, while also assessing service quality and social value. Suppliers should therefore be able to demonstrate competitive delivery, sound maintenance standards and a meaningful social-value contribution, as well as the operational capacity to cover sites across both Dorset and Wiltshire.
