## Summary

The procurement process is being conducted by NHS Ayrshire & Arran for the project titled "Design & Build - Installation of Two Gas CHP Power Plants." This contract falls under the works category and is focused on the health sector. Located at Biggart Hospital in Ayr, the tender is currently in the active stage, with a submission deadline set for 10th November 2017. The procurement method is selective, following a restricted procedure, with an estimated contract value of £200,000. Key contact for inquiries is Elaine McCabe, reachable at elaine.mccabe@aaaht.scot.nhs.uk.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in engineering, construction, and facility management, particularly those with experience in health sector projects. Companies with a robust reputation, strong financial standing, and a proven track record in installing combined heat and power (CHP) systems would be well-suited to compete. Additionally, firms capable of demonstrating their technical expertise and compliance with insurance requirements stand an advantageous position to win this contract, thereby contributing to their growth in the public procurement market.

## Notice

Two 50kW CHP engines are to be installed at the Biggart Hospital in Ayr. The design and build M+E led contract comprises the full electrical, mechanical and installation of the system. This is to include the full design of the flue systems for both CHP units; this element is not to be an exclusion in the tender documents.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Pre-construction work will include the review of any structural alterations of the CHP boiler house, any widening of doorways and ceiling alterations, positioning of the CHP units within the CHP boiler room, flue mast requirements for both units, and the flue mast itself. Mains water supplies may be taken from the main boiler house. Both foul and surface water drainage systems will be required at both boiler houses. Full electrical design is required to include electrical distribution, small power, internal and external lighting, heat and fire detection and alarms, and security alarms. Each of the CHP units is to operate under its own bespoke controls. An interface with the future installed BMS system will be required, though remote comms for monitoring of the CHP units will be achieved through either a wireless modem utilising a 4G sim card (to be supplied by the NHS), or two ISDN phone lines giving a direct comms line to each unit.. Economic operators may be excluded from this competition if they are in any of the situations referred to in regulation 8 and 9 of the Procurement (Scotland) Regulations 2016.
