Summary of the contracting process

The Leicestershire County Council has initiated a public procurement process for the provision of back office solutions and maintenance services for its network of Electric Vehicle (EV) charging points. This tender, aimed at sustaining the council's EV infrastructure, seeks comprehensive maintenance to ensure consistent operation across various locations including recently installed points at Snibston Country Park. The procurement process is in the Tender stage, with proposals submission closing on 21 June 2024. The contract is valued at £130,000 and will span from 22 January 2025 to 21 January 2028. The procurement method is an open procedure below the threshold, making it accessible for SMEs but not for VCSEs. The project falls under several CPV categories including Chargers, Electrical equipment, Road equipment, and Repair and maintenance services, with operations spread across multiple regions in the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in sustainable transportation infrastructure and maintenance services. Companies with expertise in EV charging solutions, electrical equipment, and installation services are particularly well-suited to compete. The focus on comprehensive management and maintenance of an expanding EV network offers long-term engagement and presence in a growing market. Given the central role of EV infrastructure in future transportation initiatives, successful bidders can leverage this opportunity to bolster their portfolio and secure a prominent role in public transportation projects. SEE Services LTD, a supplier already involved in the contract, exemplifies the type of business prime for thriving in this sector.
