## Summary

Dumfries and Galloway Council is buying periodic fixed electrical inspection services for its council properties throughout Dumfries and Galloway. The requirement is a measured term contract for a suitably certified and qualified contractor to help the Council maintain compliance with electrical safety requirements. The work includes producing new Electrical Installation Condition Reports, with schedules of inspection and test results, schematic drawings or distribution diagrams, schedules of defects with recommendations, and distribution board circuit reports. This is a services opportunity for electrical inspection and compliance specialists, covering Council properties across the Dumfries and Galloway area. The Council is the buying organisation and will use the resulting service to support ongoing inspection and reporting of fixed electrical installations.

The procurement reached tender: the Council invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. There is one lot, evaluated on 60% price and 40% quality, with variants not allowed. Offers had to be submitted by 18 September 2026 at 12:00, and tenders were opened at that time in Dumfries or through online methods. The contract period is 1,800 days, intended as an initial five-year term, with no stated extension option. Its estimated value is £800,000 including the single lot. The bid validity period is 120 days. An electronic auction is part of the process, and a document fee applies to participation. Electronic payment and ordering are supported, and electronic invoicing is allowed. The requirement is recurring after the contract term and any exercised extensions.

This opportunity suits electrical contractors with the certifications, qualified personnel and practical capacity to inspect fixed electrical installations across a council property portfolio. Suppliers should be able to carry out periodic inspections systematically and produce complete, technically accurate Electrical Installation Condition Reports, including test schedules, distribution information, defect assessments and repair recommendations. The requirement asks bidders to provide the names and qualifications of staff assigned to the work, so firms need an appropriately qualified delivery team and the ability to demonstrate who will perform the inspections. It is well suited to businesses experienced in electrical compliance, inspection reporting and public-sector property programmes. Contractors able to manage work across Dumfries and Galloway, work within a measured term arrangement and meet community benefit and subcontracting requirements are particularly well placed.
