Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust procured electrical installation condition reports (EICRs) and fixed-wire testing to check its facilities’ electrical systems and support legal compliance. The work falls within electrical repair and maintenance services. The stated scope is testing at the Trust; the procurement data also lists delivery regions across England, without naming individual sites. The Trust is the buyer. The requirement was arranged as a single lot covering EICR and fixed-wire testing, rather than separate packages. The work is specifically concerned with inspection and testing of fixed electrical installations and switchgear, not a general healthcare service or a broader building-maintenance requirement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Guardian Electrical Compliance. The Trust used a limited procedure without a published competition, making a direct award through the NHS Shared Business Services Hard FM2 framework, Lot 4.2 for fixed wiring and switchgear maintenance. The stated justification was that the procurement fell outside the scope of the directive. Price was the award criterion. The award is recorded as active, and one bid was reported. The contract was signed on 29 September 2026, with a recorded value of £278,121.85. The procurement was organised in one lot, which is recorded as cancelled, while the award and associated contract are recorded as active.

For future work of this kind with Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust, a credible supplier would need to deliver electrical installation condition reporting and fixed-wire testing across healthcare facilities, including fixed wiring and switchgear maintenance, and demonstrate that its inspections support legal compliance. The award shows that the Trust has sourced this requirement through the NHS Shared Business Services Hard FM2 framework, specifically its fixed wiring and switchgear maintenance provision, rather than through an advertised open competition. Suppliers would therefore need suitable framework access and the operational capacity to carry out the Trust’s testing scope across the stated delivery areas. Price was the recorded basis for evaluating the award, so competitive pricing would matter alongside the technical ability to complete the inspections.
