## Summary

The procurement process involves the Dorset HealthCare University NHS Foundation Trust, seeking contractors for the project titled "GB-Poole: St Ann's Hospital, Main LV Switchgear Replacement." This initiative falls within the electrical apparatus industry and is set in Poole, UK. The procurement methods used were open, with the tender period closing on 19 December 2016. The contract is expected to commence on 2 January 2017, and will run until 28 February 2017.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses in the electrical engineering sector, particularly those with experience in switchgear systems, circuit components, and electrical machinery. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) might find it especially suitable, given the contracting authority's indication that they consider this contract to be potentially suitable for them. With the critical nature of the work being conducted at a hospital site, companies that can demonstrate reliability and expertise in managing sensitive installations will be well-positioned to compete.

## Notice

The hospital has a single 11kV 400kVA transformer sub-station supplying electrical power to the site via the adjacent main switchroom. The main Hospital LV switchboard is to be replaced with a higher rated switchboard having full automatic standby generator support, additional outgoing circuits and incorporating the existing SSE metering for the incoming supply and new metering for all main outgoing circuits to the buildings. The Hospital has many critical loads and hence the replacement of the LV switchboard is to be carried out in a controlled exercise, one outgoing supply at a time, with the installation of a temporary main switchboard supported from two temporary 400kVA standby generators throughout the duration of the disconnection of the loads from the existing main switchboard and their subsequent reconnection to the new main switchboard. The new switchboard is to be handled into position and assembled by the switchboard manufacturer's staff ready for the connection of the incoming transformer supply, the Hospital standby generator supply and the outgoing cables. The Trusts "permit to work" system is to be used throughout the replacement of the main switchboard. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
