## Summary

Torus Group’s requirement is for a solar photovoltaic meter upgrade and replacement programme, classified as a services contract. The work concerns upgrading and replacing meters associated with solar PV installations. Delivery is listed in North West England. The procurement title identifies the programme, but the available scope does not describe the number or type of meters, sites, or specific technical tasks. For businesses supplying solar PV metering services, the opportunity indicates demand from a housing group for maintenance or upgrade work connected with its solar installations.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Orsis Limited. Torus Group selected the supplier on 24 August 2026. The award value is £45,000, and the contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The estimated procurement value was also £45,000. The tender deadline was 17 August 2026. The information identifies the procurement as a services contract but does not set out a named procedure or describe how bids were evaluated. No lots or selection criteria are stated. The result provides a clear example of Torus Group buying a solar PV meter upgrade and replacement service over a defined contract period, with Orsis Limited as the selected supplier.

For suppliers assessing similar work for Torus Group, this award demonstrates demand for a focused programme to upgrade and replace meters linked to solar photovoltaic installations. A credible competitor would need to show that it can deliver meter replacement and upgrade work for solar PV systems across North West England, and manage the programme through the required contract period. The award establishes Orsis Limited as the selected provider, but the procurement data does not describe particular technical standards, accreditations, staffing levels or prior experience that secured the result. Businesses should therefore assess their fit against the core metering and solar PV delivery requirement, rather than assume further qualification criteria. The stated buyer is Torus Group; the requirement does not establish wider demand beyond this buyer and this type of programme.
