## Summary

Hampshire County Council procured works at Portchester Community School involving electrical distribution board replacement, wiring upgrades and associated fire repair works. The requirement is electrical installation and building-services work, with the award item classified under CPV 45310000. The works are associated with Portchester Community School and delivery is in the United Kingdom. This is a school infrastructure project rather than a supply-only electrical equipment purchase: the scope combines replacement of an electrical distribution asset with remedial fire-related works. Businesses relevant to this opportunity would typically be electrical contractors able to undertake installation, testing and replacement work in an occupied or operational education setting, alongside contractors with the competence to deliver associated repair works safely and in accordance with the project requirements.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to CEI Electrical Services Ltd. Hampshire County Council used a selective procedure, described as a below-threshold award under a framework; the process was competitive. There was one completed lot. The award is active and the contract was signed on 3 August 2026. The contract runs from 17 August 2026 to 30 October 2026. Its value is £90,591 excluding VAT and £108,709 including VAT. The awarded supplier is CEI Electrical Services Ltd. The outcome relates to the electrical distribution, wiring upgrade and fire repair works at Portchester Community School. The procurement was below the applicable threshold and proceeded through a framework route rather than an open standalone competition.

This completed award provides a useful benchmark for electrical contractors targeting Hampshire County Council’s school estate. A credible competitor would need practical capability in replacing electrical distribution boards, carrying out wiring upgrades and delivering associated fire repair works as one coordinated package. The requirement demonstrates demand for contractors able to manage building-services works in a community-school environment, with suitable planning, site safety, testing and handover arrangements. Experience of public-sector or framework delivery would be relevant because the council used a competitive award under a framework. Smaller electrical businesses may also find the scale and delivery model informative: the selected supplier, CEI Electrical Services Ltd, is recorded as an SME. Relevant firms should assess their technical competence, framework access and ability to coordinate electrical and remedial works.
