Notice Title

M&E Consultancy Lan room surveys and Design

Notice Description

The requirement is for an M&E Consultant to undertake LAN room surveys and M&E Design. Cardiff University is currently undertaking an upgrade of IT equipment campus wide which includes replacement of existing active equipment, provision of additional active equipment and replacement of existing Uninterruptible Power Supply arrangements. There are 274 LAN rooms across the campus where these works are to be carried out. LAN rooms vary in size and complexity and are located throughout the campus across various locations in Cardiff. The works are anticipated to be spread across a period of around 36 to 48 months and the consultant will be expected to attend all design, site, Client and co-ordination meetings throughout the entire duration of the works. The upgrade will include assessing the requirement and subsequent design for provision of additional power supplies to new and existing IT racks to supply new and existing active equipment via the new UPS systems and provision of cooling due to the associated additional power loads and heat gains. There will be essential works to be carried out to ensure the necessary level of provision is available and additional provision made as and where necessary. The overall scope of the Consultants duties will be to survey and report on each individual LAN room and report findings and recommendations to the University. Following review of the findings and recommendations and review of all options for all rooms, the Consultant shall then be responsible for carrying out detailed designs and specifications for the eventual scope of works agreed by the University. All LAN rooms will be live throughout the design and construction stages with minimal down time to be allowed only at final changeover from existing to new power arrangements.
