Notice Title

Works-Framework-Digital Services-Monitoring & Control, Design & Build

Notice Description

The high-level Digital Services Monitoring & Control (DS M&C) requirement is to have access to a number of third-party framework suppliers covering Design & Build expertise, who have demonstrable experience in the M&C area. The framework will drive the delivery of new DS M&C infrastructure and its associated installation, commissioning, testing and handover back to operational sites, to required standards and timescales. The scope and scale of the works will vary from simple ICA (Instrumentation, Control and Automation) installations through to large complex design and build projects. DS M&C scope of delivery will range from first time install to upgrade, development, integration and optimisation of existing M&C infrastructure.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The scope and scale of the works will vary from simple ICA installations through to large complex design and build projects. DS M&C scope of delivery will range from first time install to upgrade, development, integration and optimisation of existing M&C infrastructure. Small Projects (value<250K) Projects will be of varied value and complexity; typically, projects will be ICA in scope but may include minor elements of Electrical/Mechanical/Civil works. A small number of projects may be more reactive in nature and therefore suppliers will need to demonstrate agility and flexibility to respond to these needs. There may be a number of projects where there is a requirement to work across multiples sites and locations. Typical projects will include: * Replacement of a single PLC or replacement of a site communications network * Installation of an additional instrument on a Water / Wastewater Treatment works and integration into the site control system * Installation and testing of a new communications panel and associated infrastructure on operational sites * Installation and commissioning of a new telemetry outstation Large Projects (value>PS250K) Where projects are of a large value and more complex, these will typically require multi-discipline delivery teams including minor civils works, and will typically, be over PS250k and could be in excess of PS1m. Projects could be single site large-scale installation and will demand a high level of project management capability. Typical projects will include: * Single site complex projects such as replacing the control system infrastructure (multiple PLCs, site SCADA etc.) and managing the associated interfaces on a critical Water / Wastewater Treatment works. * Large scale rollout across multiple sites of additional instrumentation including integration into each site's control system and coordination of testing critical control changes across impacted sites * Critical regulatory date driven projects where high levels of project management will be required to meet the commitments agreed with our regulators Desired Competencies Categories within the Table below are the expected competencies of framework partners supporting delivery of DS M&C projects. They have been differentiated into core/technology capabilities and are not fixed; some flexibility is expected. Suitable respondents to the resulting tender will demonstrate experience and competence in all core areas defined and some experience of the technology capabilities would be advantageous. Core Capabilities - Technology Capabilities (Desirable) Project Management - Designing for the Digital Landscape Agile Delivery Capability - Design of PLC/HMI solutions (design/install/commission) Programme & Resource Management - Design of SCADA solutions (design/install/commission) Engineering Resource provision - Design of Telemetry Solutions (design/install/commission) CDM Principal Designer & Principal Contractor Capability - Design of Industrial network solutions (design/install/commission) Full suite of delivery documentation - Experience of designing for cyber resilience Site Surveys - Reverse engineering software (legacy PLC's) HAZOP Study Capability - SCADA 1st Time Installation Digital Technology Design and Integration - SCADA upgrades Cyber Security awareness and application - PLC/HMI Migration Design, installation and commissioning of instrumentation solutions - Process Control Optimisation Safety Instrumented Systems -Emerging Digital Technology and Innovation Minor PLC/HMI and SCADA modifications Working knowledge of process engineering Electrical Works - construct/install/commission Minor Mechanical Works - construct/install/commission Minor Civil Works - construct/install/commission
