## Summary

The Department of Transport has completed a procurement process for the provision of a technical audit of non-domestic chargepoints funded by OLEV. This tender, classified under electrical equipment for engines and vehicles, had a total value of £106,000. It was conducted using an open procurement method with the initiative published on 7th November 2018 and the tender period closing on 28th November 2018. The contract commenced on 10th December 2018 and is set to conclude by 1st September 2020. The audit aimed to ensure compliance through on-site inspections of chargepoint installations across various locations, including the United Kingdom and its territories.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialised in electric vehicle infrastructure and auditing services. Companies capable of performing technical audits and possessing expertise in electrical installations would be ideally positioned to engage in similar future tenders. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, given the procurement's suitability criteria, which indicates a preference for SME involvement. Engaging in contracts of this nature can enable businesses to expand their portfolio and establish long-term relationships within the growing electric vehicle market.

## Notice

For OLEV-funded non-domestic chargepoint installations, an audit is required to give a level of independent and objective assurance of compliance by the installers and customers - this is to be done through on-site visits to installations for the non-domestic charging infrastructure grant schemes which are in scope of this requirement. If your interested and want to make a tender submission, please contact Darren Spencer (darren.spencer@dft.gov.uk) for your access to the AWARD e-tendering portal. Emailed submissions cannot be accepted.
