Notice Title

UKRI-3274 Professional Services for the Design, Project Management and Cost Management of HV/LV Infrastructure Project Works

Notice Description

UKRI-STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory site has 50 substations with a total demand of 24MW and c. 27km of HV cabling. Some of this infrastructure is original circa 60 years old. STFC have identified a substantial maintenance backlog list, which forms the focus of the request for the support of a specialist HV/LV Design Consultancy, with large, complexed site Infrastructure design experience. The list is comprised of a large variety of interventions to the electrical infrastructure such as cable overlays for capacity, replacements for service life, and remedial works following faults on the network. There is a clear need for a long-term infrastructure masterplan to address this deficit. At this time, we understand that planning the maintenance work should be mindful to the need for a masterplan. The supplier is to be capable to design and deliver Infrastructure Master planning especially where we are making significant investment into the existing infrastructure. https://www.ukri.org/who-we-are/procurement-contract-transparency-data/
