Summary of the contracting process

VIVID Housing Ltd is seeking a concessionaire to design, install, operate and maintain electric vehicle charging points and associated infrastructure. The purpose is to provide electric vehicle charging facilities across VIVID’s residential and operational estate. This is a public-sector services opportunity covering charging infrastructure delivery, ongoing operation and maintenance, electricity distribution-related services and telematics services. The work is intended to cover VIVID’s estate across the South East and South West of England, with the buyer based in Portsmouth. It may suit businesses that can provide an end-to-end electric vehicle charging service rather than suppliers offering only equipment, installation, software or maintenance in isolation.

The process has reached tender: VIVID invited offers through an open procedure. Enquiries had to be submitted by 10 September 2026 at 12:00, and offers by 17 September 2026 at 12:00. The intended award decision date was 29 October 2026. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 December 2026 to 1 December 2041, with an optional five-year extension available to 1 December 2046. The procurement’s estimated gross value is £90,000,000 GBP; the single lot is separately recorded with a gross value of AED 90,000,000. Evaluation is split equally between quality, worth 50%, and commercial considerations, worth 50%. Offers may be submitted electronically in English.

This opportunity suits an established electric vehicle infrastructure operator with the capability to manage the full service over a long-term concession. Relevant strengths include designing charging networks, installing charging points and associated infrastructure, operating charging facilities, and maintaining equipment and supporting systems. Suppliers should be able to deliver across both residential and operational property estates, coordinate physical infrastructure with telematics services, and sustain reliable service delivery over a potentially twenty-year term. The requirement is likely to favour businesses able to combine technical design, construction delivery, operational management and planned or responsive maintenance within one service model. Experience managing distributed charging assets and supporting users across a sizeable housing or operational estate would be commercially relevant.
