The title of the tender is "COV - Prior information notice for the Supply of an Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure." This initiative falls under the category of electric vehicles and is located in the West Midlands, United Kingdom. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, with key milestones, including the engagement end date set for 23rd February 2018. The contract is expected to exceed the European Procurement threshold for supplies, pending funding from the Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV) Taxi Scheme. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in electric vehicle charging solutions, particularly those focused on rapid charging infrastructure. Suppliers who are experienced in electric vehicle technologies and services would be well-suited to compete, especially as the council may extend the network to accommodate broader electric vehicle use beyond the taxi fleet. Interested suppliers can express their interest through the CSW-JETS portal, ensuring they are kept updated on the procurement timeline and relevant developments. ## Notice Coventry City Council is giving prior notification (OJEU notice number: 2017/S 037-066486) of its intention to tender for the supply and operation of a dedicated network of 50kW Rapid electric vehicle chargers in Coventry. The procurement is subject to the Council being awarded funding from the Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV) Taxi Scheme bid that will be the initial requirement. These chargers will be for the sole use of the taxi trade. The new contract will also allow the Council to potentially extend the network to cover new requirements that emerge which could cover all electric vehicles use and so not specifically for the taxi trade and would not be funded by the OLEV Taxi Scheme bid. This element of the contract may also be opened for use by Warwickshire County and Warwickshire District Councils. The value has yet to be determined but we expect this to exceed the European Procurement threshold for Supplies. Suppliers who express an interest will be updated by the Coventry City Council through the portal on the timetable for the procurement / tender process. Additional information: Suppliers can express an interest in the opportunity at www.csw-jets.co.uk. Suppliers that express an interest will be kept up to date by Council of timelines for the future procurement and the success of the Council's OLEV bid. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a0b51491-a272-48e0-a106-4e47c169107b | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 22 Feb 2017 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 23 Feb 2018 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | COVENTRY CITY COUNCIL | | Locality | COVENTRY | | Post town | Coventry | | Postcode | CV1 1NG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG3 West Midlands | | ITL 3 | TLG33 Coventry | | Local authority | Coventry | | Electoral ward | St Michael's | | Westminster constituency | Coventry South | | Delivery location | TLG West Midlands (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 34 - Transport equipment and auxiliary products to transportation ### Codes - 34144900 - Electric vehicles ## Release History - 22 Feb 2017 at 09:41 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a0b51491-a272-48e0-a106-4e47c169107b ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a0b51491-a272-48e0-a106-4e47c169107b 22nd February 2017 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.csw-jets.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
