UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council procured works to install photovoltaic (PV) equipment at Alaw Primary School. The requirement is a school-based renewable energy project, combining construction work with energy-related services. Delivery is in the Rhondda Cynon Taf area of Wales, with the school as the operational site. The council is the public-sector buyer and the requirement was treated as a single package. The work is relevant to contractors and energy specialists able to design, supply, install or complete photovoltaic systems in an educational setting, including firms with the construction capability needed for associated site works, electrical installation and commissioning. The procurement concerns physical works rather than a standalone consultancy or routine energy supply service.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to EFS Systems (UK) Ltd on 21 July 2026. A contract was signed on 21 July 2026 and runs from 22 July 2026 to 31 December 2026. Its value is £34,150 excluding VAT, or £40,980 including VAT. The process used a below-threshold limited competition, with one completed lot. The contract is active. The award covers works classified as energy and related services and construction work. Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council is the buyer, and EFS Systems (UK) Ltd is the selected supplier. This is an awarded outcome rather than an opportunity to submit a bid for the current requirement.

This procurement is useful market evidence for businesses delivering commercial or public-sector photovoltaic installations, particularly those serving schools and other public buildings in Wales. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical PV installation capability alongside the construction expertise required to carry out associated building and site works safely. The successful supplier’s participation shows that the buyer used a limited competition route for a focused, below-threshold project, so firms seeking similar work should be able to respond efficiently to targeted opportunities rather than relying only on large, open tenders. Relevant businesses include renewable-energy contractors, electrical and construction firms, and integrated providers able to manage delivery from installation through completion on an operating school site.
