Summary of the contracting process

Oxfordshire County Council procured works to replace the LED lighting at Caldecott School in Abingdon. The requirement is electrical installation work focused on renewing the school’s lighting system. The council is the buying organisation and the work is for its school premises in Abingdon, Oxfordshire. The procurement covered one package of work. This is a facilities electrical project rather than a supply-only purchase: businesses would need to undertake the installation and replacement works at an operational education site. The named requirement combines the location, building type and technical outcome, making it relevant to electrical contractors with experience of LED lighting replacement and public-sector or education-sector premises.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to BOJEN ELECTRICAL LIMITED. It used below-threshold limited competition and covered one lot. The contract was signed on 15 May 2026 and runs from 15 May 2026 to 28 August 2027, with a maximum extent date of 15 May 2030. Its value is £53,938.90 excluding VAT, or £64,726.68 including VAT. Renewal is allowed, with commencement and completion dates variable under clause 2.7 of the JCT contract. The contract period includes 12 months for rectification before final payment. The award is for works, classified as electrical installation work, and the contract is active.

This award shows Oxfordshire County Council’s demand for specialist electrical contractors able to replace LED lighting in school buildings. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in electrical installation and LED lighting renewal, with sufficient capacity to deliver a complete site-based works package rather than supplying equipment alone. Experience working safely in education or other occupied public buildings would help demonstrate an understanding of access, safeguarding, disruption and coordination requirements, although those requirements are not stated as formal criteria here. The successful supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise, indicating that this scale of council works can be delivered by an appropriately resourced specialist contractor rather than only by a large national business.
