The contractor must inspect each home and ensure it has a current electrical safety certificate, carry out repairs and, where property condition requires, rewiring, and maintain fire, heat and carbon monoxide alarms. Properties must meet LD2 building regulations guidance. The work also includes contacting residents, securing access to hard-to-reach homes, documenting cases where residents do not cooperate, and supplying property data, certificates and photographs so the council can maintain its asset records and evidence inspections, condition and completed works. Delivery is across the council’s domestic housing stock in Welwyn Hatfield.

The buyer invited offers through a competitive flexible procedure under the Procurement Act 2023. The procurement is a single-lot services contract. The deadline for enquiries was 30 October 2026 at 12:00, and the expression-of-interest deadline was 6 November 2026 at 12:00.

This requirement suits electrical contractors able to deliver a sustained, large-scale domestic housing programme, combining inspection and certification with responsive remedial work and condition-dependent rewiring. Suppliers need the operational capacity to reach and work across a substantial housing portfolio, manage resident communications and access challenges, and record evidence consistently for every property. Experience maintaining electrical safety in occupied homes, managing fire and heat alarms and carbon monoxide alarms, and working to LD2 building regulations guidance will be directly relevant. The contractor must also be capable of producing accurate property-level data, certificates and photographs to support asset management and demonstrate completed inspections and works. The long-term service scope may suit providers with established field teams, scheduling and customer-engagement processes.
