## Summary

The Equality and Human Rights Commission is procuring works to replace or provide modern, efficient and compliant LED lighting throughout its Manchester office. The work covers the third floor of Arndale House, Arndale Centre, Manchester, M4 3AQ. It combines the supply of lighting equipment and electric lamps with associated electrical installation work. This is a facilities and electrical works requirement for a central government public authority, focused on improving the office lighting infrastructure and ensuring that the completed installation is compliant. Suppliers whose core business is commercial LED lighting, electrical contracting, or integrated lighting design and installation are likely to find the scope relevant. Delivery is centred on the Commission’s Manchester premises.

The process has reached the tender stage: the buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Clarification questions had to be submitted by 24 September 2026 at 1:00pm, and tender submissions by 2 October 2026 at 1:00pm, using the ProContract portal. The contract is for one lot, with a planned period from 12 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its estimated value is £24,000 excluding VAT, or £30,000 including VAT. The award will be based on the most advantageous tender, weighted 60% for quality and 40% for price. Quality covers the design plan, project plan, project management methodology, delivery, and health and safety management.

This opportunity suits electrical contractors and lighting specialists able to design and install LED systems in an occupied or operational office environment. Strong bidders will need to demonstrate a credible design plan, a practical project plan, and a clear project management methodology covering delivery from preparation through completion. The requirement also rewards robust delivery arrangements and effective health and safety management, so suppliers should be able to control electrical, installation and site risks while maintaining compliant working practices. Businesses with experience in office lighting upgrades, electrical installation, coordination of works and handover of completed systems are well placed. The lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises.
