UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Gov Facility Services Ltd procured the hire of generators, classified as goods, for use in the United Kingdom. The requirement is described as a procurement exercise for generator hire and covers one completed requirement. The selected supplier, MEMS Power Generation Limited, is a small or medium-sized enterprise specialising in power generation equipment. The buyer is a sub-central public authority responsible for this procurement. The award also refers to the option of purchasing additional services, so the requirement may involve more than the core generator-hire provision. This opportunity is relevant to businesses that supply, hire, install, maintain or support temporary or standby power-generation equipment for public-sector facilities.

The procurement has reached the awarded stage: the tender is complete and MEMS Power Generation Limited was selected through a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. The award was recorded on 21 July 2026. Its value is £41,548.50 excluding VAT, or £49,858.20 including VAT. The contract period runs from 31 July 2026 to 30 September 2027. One lot was awarded to the supplier, covering generators for delivery in the UK. The award is marked pending, with signature scheduled for 21 July 2026. The buyer reserved an option for additional services. The published evaluation route was direct award rather than a competitive assessment.

Although this contract is no longer available, it demonstrates demand from Gov Facility Services Ltd for generator hire within public-sector facilities and shows that the buyer has used a below-threshold direct-award route for this type of requirement. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need reliable access to suitable generators, the operational capacity to provide them across the UK, and the ability to support the equipment for the required service period. Experience of working with public-sector or secure facilities would help demonstrate delivery capability, as would robust arrangements for mobilisation, maintenance, breakdown response, safety and continuity of power. Small and medium-sized suppliers can be relevant, as the selected provider was an SME.
