Summary of the contracting process

The Industrial Dwellings Society (1885) Ltd procured electrical safety and compliance services for its housing portfolio. The requirement covered Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) on a five-year cyclical basis, associated C1 and C2 remedial works, and programmed or cyclical Portable Appliance Testing (PAT). The work applies to domestic and non-domestic properties, with delivery across the buyer’s UK property portfolio. The purpose is to maintain the safety and regulatory compliance of housing stock against applicable statutory and regulatory standards. This is a property electrical inspection, testing and remedial works requirement, suited to contractors able to manage recurring inspections and follow-on electrical repairs across a mixed residential and non-residential estate.

The procurement was below threshold and comprised one completed lot. An award was made to Gracelands Complete Maintenance Services Limited on 28 July 2026 for £360,000 excluding VAT, or £432,414 including VAT. The intended contract period was 1 November 2026 to 1 November 2029, with an option for up to two further 12-month extensions, giving a maximum possible end date of 1 November 2031. The contract was cancelled on 17 August 2026. The buyer identified material defects in the tender documents: an annual quantity in the Stream A pricing schedule represented total property stock rather than genuine annual testing volume, and Stream B contained a formatting defect. The award therefore did not proceed on accurate pricing information.

This outcome confirms a recurring requirement for cyclical electrical condition reporting, PAT testing and associated C1 and C2 remedial works across a housing provider’s domestic and non-domestic properties. A credible future supplier would need the operational capacity to plan and deliver repeated inspections across a dispersed property portfolio, identify electrical safety defects accurately, and complete or coordinate remedial works arising from those inspections. It would also need robust pricing and tender-review processes, because the cancelled procurement resulted from inaccurate quantities and a formatting error in the pricing schedules. Experience of housing-stock compliance programmes, reliable reporting, responsive remedial delivery and the ability to evidence performance against statutory and regulatory requirements would strengthen a competitor’s position when this buyer next tests the requirement.
