UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The UK Atomic Energy Authority is procuring electrical installation works for plant and equipment within, and associated with, Building D15 High Voltage Power Supplies. The requirement covers the installation of electrical equipment in an industrial or large scientific facility. The appointed contractor will provide suitably experienced electrical installation personnel to carry out the works. This is a construction and engineering opportunity, including electrical installation work and installation services for electrical and mechanical equipment (CPV 45310000 and 51100000). Delivery will take place in Oxfordshire at the UKAEA’s Culham Science Centre. The requirement is presented as a single package of works, rather than separate workstreams, and is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The process has reached tender: the UK Atomic Energy Authority invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Suppliers could submit enquiries until 6 August 2026 at 16:00, and the tender submission deadline was 13 August 2026 at 11:00. The contract is planned to run from 1 September 2026 to 28 February 2027, with a possible extension to 31 August 2027. Its estimated value is £190,000 excluding VAT, or £228,000 including VAT. There is one lot. Offers will be assessed on price, weighted at 75%, and technical quality, weighted at 25%. Electronic submission is permitted. The contract may be renewed for a further three or six months.

This opportunity suits electrical installation contractors with personnel experienced in installing electrical equipment in industrial settings or large scientific facilities. Businesses will need the practical capability to install plant and equipment associated with high-voltage power supplies and to deliver the work safely and competently within a specialist technical environment. Cyber Essentials or Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation is required, although suppliers may instead be willing to work towards the accreditation after contract award, subject to the tender documents. The requirement is identified as suitable for SMEs, so it may be accessible to a smaller specialist contractor with the relevant technical workforce and delivery capacity. Firms with comparable industrial, laboratory, research or complex engineering-facility installation experience are likely to be well placed to compete.
