Bus maintenance services

Tender description

Norfolk County Council is looking for a supplier to provide and fit up to 24 buses based in Norfolk with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology that is able to deliver at least a 50 % reduction in NOx emissions from the tailpipe under driving conditions that are representative of the normal operation of the vehicle. As part of the retro-fitting of equipment, there will also be a requirement for the fitment of an electric cooling fan (efan) and heat exchangers to mitigate against a possible rise in CO2 emissions and fuel use. This follows a successful bid for funding from the Department for Transport's Clean Bus Technology Fund 2015. 9 of the buses are operated by Konectbus from a depot in East Dereham and 15 buses are operated by First Eastern Counties, from depots in Norwich. The successful supplier will need to undertake the work at the bus companies depots.
