UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Somerset NHS Foundation Trust commissioned external architectural lighting works for the Surgical Centre courtyard at Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton. The requirement covered the design, supply, installation, commissioning, testing and certification of 22 outdoor lighting fittings, together with DALI lighting controls, cabling, junction boxes, an area controller and scene control panel. It also included associated electrical works, electrical design services, integration with the existing lighting control system, and testing and certification in accordance with BS 7671. This is a specialist electrical installation and outdoor illumination project, classified under CPV 45316100. The completed requirement relates to one works package for the hospital site.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Somerset NHS Foundation Trust used a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. One works lot was awarded to Knight Electrical Limited, an SME. The contract was signed on 22 July 2026 and runs from 30 July 2026 to 29 September 2026. Its value is £24,806.10 excluding VAT, or £29,767.32 including VAT. The successful supplier is responsible for the full courtyard lighting installation and associated electrical, control, commissioning and certification activities. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, and the contract is recorded as active.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Somerset NHS Foundation Trust for integrated external lighting and electrical works in a live hospital environment. A credible future supplier would need to combine architectural or outdoor lighting installation with electrical design, cabling, control-system integration, commissioning, testing and formal certification. Competence in DALI controls, scene control, area controllers and associated junction-box infrastructure would be relevant, as would the ability to install and manage multiple fittings as one coordinated system. Experience of BS 7671 compliance and work for healthcare or other operational sites would strengthen a competing offer. The awarded supplier is an SME, indicating that this scale of requirement can suit a focused specialist electrical contractor rather than only a large national provider.
