## Summary

Essex Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust procured electrical upgrade works for the kitchen at Thurrock Hospital, Long Lane, Grays. The requirement covered the design, supply, installation, testing and commissioning of two replacement electrical distribution boards. This is a specialist electrical installation project (CPV 45310000) delivered at a hospital site in Essex. The buyer is an NHS foundation trust, so relevant businesses are electrical contractors able to work in healthcare environments and manage the full installation lifecycle from design through commissioning. The procurement comprised one lot and focused on the Thurrock kitchen rather than a wider hospital electrical upgrade programme.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to A D Mitchell Electrical Contractors Ltd, an SME. It used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 19 August 2026 and runs from 20 August 2026 to 2 October 2026, with a maximum extent date of 2 October 2027. Its value is £35,080.60 excluding VAT and £42,096.72 including VAT. The contract includes a renewal provision described as a 12-month rectification period from practical completion. The award covered the single lot for the Thurrock kitchen electrical upgrades. The published outcome records the contract as active.

This procurement indicates demand from the NHS trust for contractors that can deliver complete electrical upgrade packages in operational hospital settings. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrated capability in designing, supplying, installing, testing and commissioning replacement electrical distribution boards, with the technical competence to coordinate the work through to practical completion. Experience of electrical installation work in healthcare or similarly controlled environments would help establish suitability, particularly where safety, continuity of service, site coordination and commissioning assurance are important. The awarded supplier was an SME, showing that the requirement was accessible to a focused specialist contractor rather than only a major national business. Firms with strong project delivery, testing and defect-rectification arrangements would be well placed.
