UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Broads Authority is buying works to replace and install electric vehicle charging pedestals at 21 locations across the Broads. The project covers removal of 52 existing Rolec units and installation of new Meter MACS pedestals, including concrete plinths, mounting brackets, electrical testing and commissioning, and reinstatement of the ground. This is electrical installation and associated groundworks, rather than a supply-only order: the contractor must deliver the full replacement work at the charging locations. The stated delivery area is the Broads in the United Kingdom; the buyer is the Broads Authority.

The buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Enquiries were due by 9 November 2026 at 23:59 UTC, and tenders by 20 November 2026 at 11:59 UTC. The contract period was set to run from 4 December 2026 to 26 February 2027, with an option to extend by up to six months. The estimated value is £30,000 excluding VAT (£36,000 including VAT). There is one lot, assessed on the most advantageous tender basis: price carries 50%, electrical works expertise 20%, groundworks construction expertise 10%, and robustness and likelihood of completion to the required timescale 20%.

This requirement is suited to contractors able to manage a coordinated installation programme across multiple charging locations, combining electrical and groundworks capability. Relevant experience should cover removing existing charging equipment, installing replacement pedestals and their concrete supports and brackets, carrying out electrical testing and commissioning, and reinstating disturbed ground. The evaluation explicitly rewards technical expertise in both electrical works and groundworks, so a supplier with demonstrable competence across both disciplines is well placed, either directly or through a delivery team. Reliable planning and the capacity to complete the works within the specified programme matter: delivery robustness and confidence in meeting the completion timescale account for a fifth of the assessment. The lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.
