UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

North Somerset Council commissioned the relocation of electric vehicle chargers at Carlton Street Car Park. The work is to move the chargers from inside the car park to an outdoor position within the same premises, including installation services for electrical and mechanical equipment (CPV 51100000). The delivery location is in North Somerset, England. The requirement is a focused car-park infrastructure job rather than a broader charging-network rollout.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. North Somerset Council made a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. Mer Fleet Services was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 6 August 2026 and runs from 7 August 2026 to 7 February 2027. Its value is £39,711 excluding VAT (£47,653.20 including VAT). The award is recorded as active, and the contract covers the charger relocation and associated installation work.

For this requirement, a credible supplier needs to deliver the relocation and installation of EV charging equipment in an existing car park, moving equipment from an indoor to an outdoor setting. Relevant capability includes electrical and mechanical equipment installation, planning work within an operating car-park environment, and completing a contained infrastructure project for a local authority. The selected supplier, Mer Fleet Services, is recorded as an SME, demonstrating that a smaller specialist business was able to deliver this scale of council requirement. The direct award route used here means this outcome does not demonstrate a competitive tender process; suppliers tracking similar work should note the buyer, site-specific charger relocation need and specialist installation capability involved.
