Summary of the contracting process

Coventry City Council is in the planning stage of a procurement process for the supply and operation of electric vehicle infrastructure within the City of Coventry. This process is currently being flagged through a Prior Information Notice (PIN). The contract aims to establish Electric Vehicle (EV) infrastructures, including four EV charging hubs in areas lacking off-street parking. Key areas of interest include public car parks and community facilities in residential areas of Coventry. This initiative is anticipated to be partially funded by the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) Pilot scheme under the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV), with additional funding from the awarded supplier. The full tender process is scheduled to be announced on 2nd December 2024.

The proposed tender represents a significant opportunity for companies specialising in EV infrastructure and related services. Ideal candidates for this contract would be well-suited to provide EV charging points, wireless charging pads, e-mobility vehicles, and sustainable energy solutions like solar canopies and battery storage facilities. This project is sizeable and seeks a single supplier or a consortium capable of delivering all requirements, including support and maintenance services. By participating, businesses have the chance to become pivotal in Coventry's green transportation initiative, fostering growth in the eco-friendly vehicle sector.

Notice Title

COV - Supply and Operation of Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure within the City of Coventry

Notice Description

Please note - this is not a live tender and is intended to serve as a Prior Information Notice (PIN) to a potential upcoming Procurement. The PIN replaces a previous PIN (Notice reference: 2023/S 000-015746) that has expired and was not acted upon. Coventry City Council is preparing for a future procurement in relation to establishing new Electric Vehicle Infrastructure within the City of Coventry. This is anticipated to be part funded by the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) Pilot scheme from the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) with the remaining funding supplied by the awarded supplier. The procurement will award a concession contract for a supplier to create four EV charging hubs in residential areas of Coventry where a high proportion of homes do not have access to off-street parking. The four sites will offer EV charging facilities with some of the sites also providing e-mobility vehicles for the general public to be able to hire for their use. Two of the proposed sites for these are public car parks, while the other two are community facilities, which are currently used by staff and visitors during the day but are unused at night. The proposal will see the car parks attached to the community facilities opened to residents for overnight EV charging. The Council will be seeking tender submissions for a single supplier or consortium to deliver all of the requirements outlined in this PIN notice. The single supplier / consortium will need to evidence its ability to deliver all of the requirements. The supplier / consortium may subcontract elements of the requirements but the supplier / consortium will be contractually responsible for the delivery of all of the requirements.
