Summary of the contracting process

Cairngorms National Park Authority is seeking a contractor to supply and install solar panels and battery storage on roof spaces. The work is intended to extend recent solar installations and connect the new panels to the Authority’s existing power distribution system. The installation will cover the Extension, buildings numbered 15 and 16, and external buildings. The system is intended to provide power for vehicle and bicycle charging and the heating system, and to store any surplus electricity. This is a renewable-energy installation project combining solar generation, battery storage and electrical integration. The buyer is based in Grantown-on-Spey.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure for a single lot. The estimated contract value is £83,300. The buyer set 20 November 2026 at 10:00 as the tender deadline and bid-opening time. The contract is expected to run for 270 days. Bids were to be submitted electronically in English and remain valid for 90 days after the submission deadline. Variant bids were not allowed. The award period was scheduled to start at the submission deadline. The stated procurement information does not describe the evaluation basis, so suppliers should consult the procurement documents for how offers are assessed.

This opportunity suits a contractor able to install roof-mounted solar panels and battery storage and connect them to an existing power distribution system. The intended installation spans several building areas and must support vehicle and bicycle charging, heating, and storage of surplus power. The procurement requires bidders to provide the names and qualifications of the staff assigned to the work, so suppliers should be ready to identify their proposed delivery team and demonstrate relevant practical capability. The requirement combines electrical integration with renewable-energy installation; businesses with experience delivering these elements together are likely to be well placed to compete. The published information does not set out particular accreditations or prior-project experience requirements.
