Summary of the contracting process

East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust procured authorising engineer services for high-voltage and low-voltage electrical systems. The requirement falls within engineering services and supports the Trust’s electrical safety and assurance needs. The buying organisation is East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust, based at Lister Hospital in Stevenage, Hertfordshire. The procurement covers one service requirement rather than several separate lots. The published description refers to an “Authorising Engineer” role for HV and LV electrical systems, indicating a specialist engineering and compliance service rather than routine electrical installation or maintenance. The requirement is associated with the Trust’s hospital estate and healthcare operations, so suppliers would need to understand the assurance demands of electrical systems in a clinical environment.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition using a three-quote process. Beattie Flanagan Ltd was selected as the supplier. The contract was signed on 30 August 2026 and runs from 31 August 2026 to 31 August 2027. Its value is £15,000 excluding VAT, or £18,000 including VAT. The Trust holds an option to renew for a further 12 months, allowing the arrangement to continue until 31 August 2028 if that option is used. The award is active and the contract is active. The procurement was assessed as below the applicable threshold. The available outcome records identify the supplier and commercial terms, but do not set out a separate weighted evaluation breakdown.

This award is commercially relevant to specialist engineering consultancies and individual providers able to act as an Authorising Engineer for both high-voltage and low-voltage electrical systems. A credible competitor would need demonstrable technical competence across HV and LV environments, the ability to provide independent electrical assurance, and experience of advising an NHS or similarly complex healthcare estate. Familiarity with safety governance, operational risk, permit and authorisation arrangements, and the need to protect clinical services would strengthen a supplier’s position. The selected provider is recorded as a large organisation, indicating that the requirement can suit a business with established engineering capacity and resilience. Suppliers should be able to maintain a professional service over the initial term and any further period, while managing specialist advice for a public healthcare client.
