EEM wishes to procure and enter into a framework with multiple contractors, for the provision of an ultra-low emission vehicle charging infrastructure, including the supply and installation of electric vehicle charging points (slow/fast/rapid) and other related technologies. EEM is conducting this tender exercise on behalf of its contracting authorities to establish a Framework Agreement for an electric vehicle charging infrastructure to cover requirements in both domestic and commercial locations.

It is envisioned that this framework will be utilised for retro-fit (where a charger is fitted to existing infrastructure i.e. lamp posts) or new installations (i.e. new build homes, offices, etc.). The framework will also offer knowledge of the latest industry-wide innovations and advances. The service will be on an “as and when required” basis and will include but not be limited to the items listed below. For the duration of the framework, the Contractor will be expected to offer the following: — Main requirement: — — electric vehicle charging points — wall-mounted, pedestal, lamp post-mounted, etc. — — protection barriers, — — signage, — — Charging leads, — — back office solution, — Related technologies: — — battery energy storage systems, — — Vehicle to Grid (V2G) systems, — — car port chargers (including solar), — — bus chargers, — — mobile EVCP chargers, — — EVCP test equipment, — — parking bay sensors, — — mobile apps.
