Summary of the contracting process

East Dunbartonshire Council is procuring electrical works for domestic dwellings it owns within the East Dunbartonshire local government area. The requirement is divided into two areas: electrical installation condition reports (EICRs), including correcting serious C1 and C2 defects during the survey and providing a satisfactory certificate for each property; and occupied electrical refurbishment, including full rewires. The appointed contractor will provide the management, staff, supervision, labour, equipment, materials, testing, commissioning and related resources needed to deliver orders when required. This is a works contract under the SBCC Measured Term Contract for use in Scotland, covering both inspection and remedial electrical work in council housing.

The procurement reached tender: the council invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. Bids were due by 17 August 2026 at 12:00, with evaluation scheduled to start at that time and bid opening at the same time. Each lot has an initial two-year contract period, with an option, at the council’s discretion, to extend by up to a further two years. Suppliers may bid for both lots, but only one lot can be awarded to any supplier. Variants are not allowed and bids must remain valid until 15 December 2026. Selection is pass/fail, covering suitability, economic and financial standing, and technical and professional ability. Lot 1 requires annual turnover of £120,000; Lot 2 requires £630,000. Required insurance includes professional indemnity of £2 million per claim, employer’s liability of £5 million and public liability of £5 million.

This opportunity suits electrical contractors experienced in domestic housing inspections, fault remediation, electrical refurbishment and occupied-property rewiring. Lot 1 requires the capability to complete EICRs, identify and remedy C1 and C2 defects during surveys, and issue satisfactory certificates. Lot 2 suits contractors able to plan and deliver full rewires and related refurbishment while properties are occupied. Suppliers need demonstrable experience, capacity and capability in similar works for similar clients, together with relevant professional qualifications and staff details. The business must be enrolled in the appropriate professional or trade register, such as Companies House. Contractors should be able to provide the required management, supervision, labour, equipment, materials, testing and commissioning resources, and support enforceable community-benefit commitments through their supply chain.
