Summary of the contracting process

Mid Devon District Council procured a responsive street-lighting repair service covering defective lamps and lighting columns. The requirement concerns the maintenance and repair of street-lighting assets, including street lamps (CPV 34928530), rather than a new lighting installation or a general construction project. The work is for the council and is delivered in the Mid Devon area, with the council based in Tiverton. It is relevant to businesses that diagnose and repair faults in public street-lighting equipment, maintain lighting columns and lamps, and provide responsive call-out services for defects. Suppliers whose work is limited to unrelated electrical installation, indoor lighting, or civil engineering are less closely aligned with this requirement.

The procurement has been completed and awarded under a single lot. Mid Devon District Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Enerveo was selected as the supplier. The contract was signed on 14 May 2026 and runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 March 2028. Its value is £25,000 excluding VAT, or £30,000 including VAT. The award concerns the full street-lighting servicing requirement, with no competitive evaluation between bidders recorded. The contract is active, while the tender is complete. This outcome shows that the council used a below-threshold, non-competitive route for responsive street-lighting repairs rather than an open tender or multi-supplier arrangement.

This procurement indicates a defined need for dependable, responsive repair of public street-lighting defects for Mid Devon District Council. A credible future competitor would need practical experience repairing lamps and lighting columns, diagnosing faults quickly, managing reactive work orders and working safely on public highways. Relevant capability includes suitably trained electrical and lighting engineers, vehicles, tools, replacement components and arrangements for responding across the council’s area. Suppliers should be able to provide a reliable end-to-end repair service, from receiving a defect report through investigation, repair and confirmation of completion. The awarded supplier is a large business, so competitors should consider how they will demonstrate sufficient operational capacity and resilience while remaining proportionate to a local authority requirement.
