The goal is to finalise the procurement strategy for an Electric Vehicle (EV) charge point supplier to utilise LEVI (Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure) funding. This project aims to roll out charging infrastructure across all 10 Greater Manchester Local Authority areas. A significant milestone in this procurement process is the end of the engagement period on 10th September 2024, providing a window for market consultation and the collection of supplier information. This tender represents a substantial growth opportunity for businesses specialising in EV charging solutions. Companies with demonstrated expertise in the provision of low-power, on-street EV charging infrastructure are particularly well-suited to compete. Participation will enable these suppliers to contribute to the capital funding mix, combining public and private sector investments. Given the project's emphasis on supporting residents without off-street parking, organisations with innovative and practical charging solutions will find this a lucrative venture. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are especially encouraged to respond, aligning with TfGM's objectives to commercialise and expand local EV charging infrastructure. ## Notice Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) are looking for information from the supplier market to help finalise the procurement strategy and any tender documentation, for an EV charge point supplier contract to utilise the allocated LEVI funding. Prior to engagement of a formal procurement exercise, TfGM intend to engage with the market to understand capacity, capability and appetite for the requirement. Greater Manchester has been allocated capital funding from the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) fund. This is to help to rollout infrastructure in all 10 Greater Manchester Local Authority areas. There is an expectation that the overall funding will be derived from a combination of public and private sector contributions, the private sector contribution coming from the chosen supplier. A stated objective of the LEVI fund supports local authorities in England to work with the charge point industry, to improve the roll out and commercialisation of local charging infrastructure. The LEVI Capital fund aims to: * deliver a step-change in the deployment of local, primarily low power, on-street charging infrastructure across England * accelerate the commercialisation of, and investment in, the local charging infrastructure sector. A stated aim of these public charge points is to help residents who don't have off-street parking and need to charge their electric vehicles (EVs). This is an opportunity for EV charging suppliers to understand more around the potential TfGM requirements and opportunity, and to allow them to submit information that will feed into the commercial and procurement strategy and tender documentation. TfGM are looking for a supplier with the expertise and product range that will support are goals in this area and would appreciate responses from suppliers that fall within this bracket.
