Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process was initiated by the Tees Valley Combined Authority, a sub-central government public authority, for the provision of on-street electric vehicle charging infrastructure. The project, identified as TVCA-PROC-0297, was tendered under an open procedure and involved the delivery of electric vehicle chargers, electrical equipment for engines and vehicles, and related repair and maintenance services. Located in Darlington, United Kingdom, this procurement was positioned within the works category, applying special concession rules. Initially active, the tender ended its submission period on 30th March 2026, with an award period completing on 1st May 2026. However, on 29th April 2026, the tender was cancelled due to material changes in the project's scope advised by the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) involving the LEVI concession agreement review.

This tender provided substantial business growth opportunities for firms specialising in electric vehicle charging solutions and related installation and maintenance services. By targeting businesses looking to expand within the renewable energy and sustainability sectors, it encouraged participation from SMEs due to its suitability criteria. Despite its cancellation, businesses capable of navigating complex procurement processes and those interested in future software, engineering, and infrastructure projects would have benefitted from understanding the dynamics involved in public projects like LEVI. Engaging with the Tees Valley Combined Authority connects businesses to a forward-thinking region committed to infrastructural advancement in sustainable transport solutions.
