Summary of the contracting process

Argyll and Bute Council procured specialist electrical engineering consultancy services for its Property Services function. The work supports electrical projects across the Council estate, covering planning, design, procurement, delivery, statutory compliance, certification, asset management and handover. This is a professional services opportunity for an electrical engineering or building services consultancy able to advise throughout the project lifecycle, rather than a supply-only electrical equipment contract or construction works package. The principal service classification is building services consultancy (CPV 71315210), alongside building consultancy services (CPV 71315200). Delivery is across Argyll and Bute Council’s estate, so relevant suppliers need to operate across the Council’s property portfolio and support projects in its area.

The procurement has reached the awarded stage. Argyll and Bute Council used a direct award procedure, with the contract awarded to a single supplier without competition. Harley Haddow Limited was selected, with an awarded value of £100,000. The award information was recorded on 4 August 2026. One bid is reported. The requirement covers consultancy support for electrical projects from planning and design through procurement, delivery, compliance, certification, asset management and handover. An active contract is recorded against the award, but no contract duration or end date is stated. This outcome shows that the Council selected one specialist provider rather than dividing the requirement between competing suppliers or awarding separate lots.

This procurement is relevant to consultancies with established electrical engineering and building services capability, particularly those able to provide joined-up support from early project planning through design, procurement, delivery and handover. Credible competitors would need to demonstrate practical knowledge of statutory compliance and certification, together with the systems and capacity to manage electrical assets across a public-sector estate. Experience coordinating with property teams, contractors and procurement functions would be important, as would the ability to maintain accurate asset information and support multiple projects rather than a single installation. The requirement also indicates demand for a supplier that can remain involved through operational handover, combining technical design expertise with project, compliance and asset-management disciplines.
