Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council procured electrical installation works at Kings Furlong Junior School. The requirement covers rewiring approximately 90% of the school’s electrical accessories, upgrading a distribution board, installing emergency lighting and adding lighting controls. It is a works contract focused on the renewal and improvement of an occupied education building’s electrical infrastructure. The named buyer is Hampshire County Council, with the work associated specifically with Kings Furlong Junior School. The requirement is relevant to electrical contractors able to undertake substantial school rewiring, distribution-board upgrades, emergency-lighting installation and lighting-control works, including the planning and safe delivery of activities across an existing school environment.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective, competitive below-threshold award under a framework. There was one completed lot. The contract was signed on 20 July 2026 and runs from 3 August to 27 November 2026. The award is to CEI Electrical Services Ltd. The contract value is £121,757 excluding VAT, or £146,108 including VAT. The procurement used electrical installation work as its classification, and the contract is below the relevant threshold. The evaluation basis is evidenced by the competitive framework award route. The successful supplier is CEI Electrical Services Ltd, a Southampton-based company. No separate award date is published in the available procurement record.

This procurement demonstrates a defined requirement for a specialist electrical contractor serving Hampshire County Council’s school estate. A credible competitor for similar work would need demonstrable capability in large-scale rewiring of existing educational premises, distribution-board upgrades, emergency lighting and lighting controls. Experience of working safely in or around schools would be commercially relevant, as would the ability to coordinate disruptive works, maintain compliance and complete a short, concentrated programme. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that the requirement was deliverable by a smaller specialist contractor rather than only a major national firm. Suppliers should also understand competitive framework awards and be able to present clear evidence of technical competence, reliable delivery and suitable capacity.
