## Summary

The latest procurement process, led by the Ministry of Justice, involves the installation of a 500kVA generator at a site in the North East of the United Kingdom under the project titled "HO - Derwentside - Generator - BPRN 15166". This contract falls under the industry categories of Generators and Construction work, with a focus on enhancing electrical infrastructure. The process has already advanced to the Award stage as of 15th May 2026, with Wates Construction Limited being the designated supplier. The procurement was conducted via a call-off from a framework agreement, following a selective method, with a total contract value of £1,485,205.15. Key dates include the tender period ending on 25th July 2025 and the contract period scheduled from 14th January 2026 to 28th August 2026.

This tender presents opportunities for construction firms with capabilities in electrical infrastructure projects to expand their portfolios. Given the project's scale and the need for a structured approach in executing the installation and testing phases, large construction firms like Wates Construction Limited are well-suited for such endeavours. Additionally, businesses with experience in handling framework agreements and demonstrating proficiency in project management within specified contract periods will find this tender particularly aligned with their growth strategies.

## Notice

The sites electrical infrastructure is still in excellent condition and is well maintained with no further intervention or work required. However, the Home Office currently has a backup generator on hire and seeks to implement a permanent generator in a new location. The Works include the provision and installation of a 500kVA generator on a concrete base, conducting a PAS1208 survey to locate existing cabling, trenching to expose these existing cables and to facilitate the connection of the new generator, followed by testing and commissioning activities.
