Summary of the contracting process

Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board required continued high-voltage switchgear warranty support, maintenance and emergency response services for its existing electrical infrastructure. The work covers repair and maintenance of electrical distribution equipment, including warranty support and responding to electrical emergencies. NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services managed the arrangement for the Health Board. The service is delivered for the Health Board’s electrical infrastructure in Wales. This is a services requirement for a specialist high-voltage electrical maintenance provider able to support critical healthcare infrastructure and respond when faults or emergencies occur. The requirement relates to one service package rather than separate lots, and is specific to maintaining existing high-voltage switchgear rather than supplying new equipment or undertaking general electrical works.

The procurement is complete and was awarded directly without competition under the Procurement Act 2023, using a below-threshold procedure. National Grid South Wales was selected on 20 August 2026 and the contract was signed on 1 September 2026. The contract runs from 2 September 2026 to 1 September 2027. Its value is £26,715 excluding VAT and £32,058 including VAT. The award and contract are active. Evaluation was not competitive because the Health Board entered into the agreement directly under Section 41 and Schedule 5, paragraph 7 of the Procurement Act 2023. The arrangement covers one completed service package for high-voltage switchgear warranty support, maintenance and emergency response.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for a specialist provider capable of maintaining high-voltage switchgear within a healthcare setting, supporting warranties and delivering emergency response as well as planned repair and maintenance. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable expertise in electrical distribution equipment, the technical capacity to inspect, maintain and repair high-voltage assets, and the operational resilience to respond safely to urgent faults. Experience of supporting existing infrastructure under warranty would be directly relevant, as would the ability to provide dependable coverage for a public health organisation. The incumbent’s selection also indicates that continuity, familiarity with the Health Board’s electrical assets and confidence in emergency support are commercially important aspects of this requirement.
