## Summary

Stirling Council is procuring services from a Charge Point Network Operator to manage its public and fleet electric vehicle charging network in the Stirling area. The requirement covers approximately 200 charge points and includes migration from the existing ChargePlace Scotland platform, continued operation of the charge point management system, customer support, payment processing, monitoring, reporting and account management. This is an electric vehicle charging and related software service, with associated billing, maintenance, administration and telematics functions. The work is a single service requirement for Stirling Council, with delivery centred on Stirling and its surrounding charging network. Suppliers involved in operating EV charging platforms, supporting public and fleet charging users, processing payments and maintaining related software should find the scope relevant.

The procurement has reached tender: Stirling Council invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission in English. The tender deadline is 15 October 2026 at 12:00 noon; bids are scheduled to be opened at the same time, and the award period starts then. The estimated contract value is £315,000 including the published procurement value. The initial contract period is three years, with an option to extend by a further two years, giving a possible total period of five years. There is one lot and variants are not allowed. Evaluation is based on price at 60% and quality at 40%: implementation 20%, account management 30%, customer service 30%, reporting 10% and community benefits 10%.

This opportunity suits an established EV charging network operator with a charge point management platform capable of supporting around 200 public and fleet chargers. Competitors should be able to migrate an existing charging network, maintain reliable day-to-day operations, monitor assets and usage, manage customer accounts, process payments and provide responsive customer support. Strong reporting and account-management capability will be important, as these are explicitly evaluated alongside implementation and customer service. The successful contractor must deliver and report on the community-benefit commitments made in its tender, which will become contract requirements and be monitored throughout the contract. Experience combining charging infrastructure operations with software, billing, maintenance, customer service and performance reporting would position a supplier well.
