Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council procured electrical infrastructure works at Bedenham Primary School in Hampshire. The requirement covered upgrading selected obsolete distribution boards, replacing a VIR sub-main cable supplying one distribution board through a switch fuse, and upgrading the associated switch fuse at the main electrical intake. This is a building-services electrical installation project rather than a supply-only purchase. The work was delivered in Hampshire and formed a single package. It would be relevant to electrical contractors able to undertake school-site infrastructure upgrades, electrical distribution equipment replacement and associated cabling and intake works. The buying organisation is a public authority responsible for commissioning works at a county school site.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a competitive selective process under a framework, below the applicable threshold. The contract was signed on 22 July 2026 and awarded to A.J. Taylor Electrical Contractors Limited. The awarded value is £32,573 excluding VAT, or £39,088 including VAT. The contract period runs from 3 August 2026 to 28 August 2026. Hampshire County Council treated the requirement as one lot, which is complete, and the award is active. The evaluation was carried out through the competitive framework award route. The contract covers electrical installation work, including the distribution boards, VIR sub-main cable and switch-fuse upgrades described in the requirement.

This award indicates a defined requirement for specialist electrical infrastructure work in a primary-school setting, at a relatively small works-project scale. Suppliers seeking to compete when comparable requirements return would need practical capability in inspecting and upgrading electrical distribution boards, replacing older VIR sub-main cabling, and installing or upgrading switch fuses at a main intake. Credible contractors should be able to coordinate sequenced electrical works in an occupied or operational education environment, manage site safety and access, and provide competent installation and testing. Experience of public-sector or school premises would help demonstrate understanding of safeguarding, disruption control and compliance requirements. The selected supplier was an SME electrical contractor, showing that this type of framework opportunity can suit focused specialist businesses with the necessary technical capacity.
