Electrical Design
Contractors are required to provide legally compliant lighting designs and drawings which include associated components such as PIR's for the Council's buildings including but not limited to schools, offices, libraries and leisure centres. The designs will include lighting plots for all areas and utilise an existing list of approved light fittings. Designs may require new circuits for some additional emergency lights but generally the designs will be used to cover a light for light exchange programme to transition to LEDs. Full details of the Lot can be found in the tender documents.
Renewal: The Authority intends to establish a Framework for a period of two (2) years with the option to extend for a further period of up to twenty-four (24) months.
