UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) has completed the procurement process for the project titled "UKRI-6115 Copeland House Electrical Rewire and Decoration." Governed under the UKPGA 2023/54 legal basis, the project involves the full rewire of all electrical and data infrastructure within Copeland House at the Royal Observatory in Edinburgh. The contract, awarded to Johnston Property Maintenance Ltd, was active starting from 3rd June 2026 and concluded on 31st July 2026. This procurement, classified under the services category and valued at £112,074.30, utilised a limited competition method due to being below the threshold. The project, geographically located in the UKM75 region, relates to the electrical services industry. The contract documents were published on 2nd July 2026.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities for smaller enterprises specialising in electrical engineering and infrastructure. Given that it was a limited competition and the supplier selected was an SME, such businesses can find themselves ideally positioned to compete for similar projects in future, particularly in government or public sector tenders. Firms that can deliver specialised services, such as electrical rewiring and data infrastructure projects, can leverage this opportunity to enhance their portfolios and establish themselves as key players in the market. These kinds of projects also offer the ability to build valuable relationships with public sector clients like UKRI, paving the way for future collaborations.
