Description of the procurement

The Contracting Authority proposes creation of a qualification panel for the Supply, Installation and Annual Maintenance of EV Chargers for Buses.
During the Term, when a requirement arises under this procurement process, suppliers on the Qualification Panels who have been deemed suitably qualified may be invited to submit a tender for such requirements.
Each tender process conducted off this qualification panel will require a turnkey solution for the supply and installation of electric vehicle charging infrastructure for optimal charging of future electric buses.
The scope of works includes complete project management of the turnkey solution, the associated electrical and civil works required for the safe installation and commissioning of all related equipment, including (but not limited to) transformers, chargers and charging points at the site and the back-office support protocols and training of relevant Bus Éireann staff. The scope includes provision of suitable energy storage systems or other sustainable backup systems in the event of loss of grid power supply. The scope also includes providing these services and products on a novated basis to a lead contractor, appointed by Bus Éireann, for larger depot construction projects.
A comprehensive Service and Maintenance support package will also be required for a period of not less than 5 years. Tenders within the qualification framework duration will be specified to reflect the needs of the particular location and fleet provided. They will also reflect developments in charging technology, opportunity charging and new products over the duration of the qualification period.
Site installation and commissioning of the charging infrastructure is expected to be completed in line with projected rollout planning.
