## Summary

The NHS Shared Business Services Ltd (NHS SBS) is conducting a tender for air conditioning services at the Broughton Data Centre, focusing on the installation of a new Mitsubishi downflow cooling system to replace the existing Uniflair system. This procurement falls under the category of cooling and ventilation equipment, specifically targeting the services sector. The procurement is currently at the active tender stage, with a submission deadline set for 9 June 2021. The contract is expected to begin on 10 June 2021 and conclude the following day, 11 June 2021.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in HVAC and refrigeration services, especially those with expertise in installing Mitsubishi S-MEXT units in live server room environments. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as the procurement is designed to be open and inclusive. Companies that can offer temporary cooling solutions during installation, while ensuring minimum disruption to operations, will be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract.

## Notice

The existing main communications room is to be provided with a new Mitsubishi downflow type cooling system to replace the existing currently installed Uniflair system.

The contractor shall act as the main contractor and be responsible for all electrical works, controls wiring and builders work requirements associated with the replacement. Experience of installing Mitsubishi S-MEXT units in a live server room environment is essential. Full details of the Authority's requirements are set out in the Specification in Annex B2 of Section B.
