UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Avon & Somerset procured electric vehicle charging infrastructure across specified sites in the United Kingdom. The requirement covers the design, supply, installation, testing and commissioning of a fully operational charging solution, together with associated civil engineering and electrical works. It includes integration with back-office systems and support for planned upgrades to grid capacity. The service also includes a warranty period with defined service levels for rectifying defects. Related work includes site preparation, construction and civil engineering, charger installation, vehicle refuelling services, repair and maintenance, wireless telecommunications systems, and solar panels and solar installations. This is a service-led infrastructure project for suppliers able to deliver compliant charging facilities and supporting works.

The procurement is complete and was run as a competitive award under a framework using a selective procedure. One lot was awarded to VEV SERVICES LIMITED. The award date was 11 August 2026, at a value of £866,007.97 excluding VAT and £1,039,209.56 including VAT. The contract period is 12 September 2026 to 31 March 2027, with a scheduled signature date of 1 September 2026. The award was above the relevant threshold. Evaluation was conducted through the competitive framework process; the available data does not state individual weighting or scoring criteria. The requirement was treated as a single completed lot, covering the vehicle charging infrastructure service and associated civil, electrical, installation, maintenance and systems-integration activities.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for an end-to-end electric vehicle charging infrastructure supplier serving a public-sector fleet or estate. A credible competitor for comparable work would need to combine infrastructure design with equipment supply, electrical installation, testing and commissioning, civil engineering and site preparation. Relevant capability also includes safe and standards-compliant delivery, integration with back-office systems, support for future grid-capacity upgrades, and the capacity to provide warranty-backed defect rectification against service levels. Experience coordinating multiple technical disciplines would be important, as would the ability to deliver charging equipment and related communications, maintenance and vehicle-refuelling services. Suppliers with solar installation capability may also be well placed where renewable generation forms part of the solution.
