The procurement, currently in the planning stage, involves varied works ranging from small-scale installations to large complex projects, with delivery expected to adhere to high standards and deadlines. The Future Notice date is set for 1st June 2021, indicating when further information will become available. This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in digital services and infrastructure projects, particularly those with experience in Instrumentation, Control, and Automation (ICA). Companies that can demonstrate prowess in project management, agile delivery capabilities, and engineering resources will be well-positioned to compete. Suitable respondents are those equipped to handle both small projects valued under £250k and larger, more complex projects with budgets exceeding £250k, ensuring a high level of project management to meet regulatory commitments. ## Notice The high-level Digital Services Monitoring & Control (DS M&C) requirement is to have access to a number of third-party framework suppliers covering Design & Build expertise, who have demonstrable experience in the M&C area. The framework will drive the delivery of new DS M&C infrastructure and its associated installation, commissioning, testing and handover back to operational sites, to required standards and timescales. The scope and scale of the works will vary from simple ICA (Instrumentation, Control and Automation) installations through to large complex design and build projects. DS M&C scope of delivery will range from first time install to upgrade, development, integration and optimisation of existing M&C infrastructure. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The scope and scale of the works will vary from simple ICA installations through to large complex design and build projects. DS M&C scope of delivery will range from first time install to upgrade, development, integration and optimisation of existing M&C infrastructure. Small Projects (valuePS250K) Where projects are of a large value and more complex, these will typically require multi-discipline delivery teams including minor civils works, and will typically, be over PS250k and could be in excess of PS1m. Projects could be single site large-scale installation and will demand a high level of project management capability. Typical projects will include: * Single site complex projects such as replacing the control system infrastructure (multiple PLCs, site SCADA etc.) and managing the associated interfaces on a critical Water / Wastewater Treatment works. * Large scale rollout across multiple sites of additional instrumentation including integration into each site's control system and coordination of testing critical control changes across impacted sites * Critical regulatory date driven projects where high levels of project management will be required to meet the commitments agreed with our regulators Desired Competencies Categories within the Table below are the expected competencies of framework partners supporting delivery of DS M&C projects. They have been differentiated into core/technology capabilities and are not fixed; some flexibility is expected. Suitable respondents to the resulting tender will demonstrate experience and competence in all core areas defined and some experience of the technology capabilities would be advantageous.
