EV Charging Supply, Installation, Service and Maintenance

Description

In line with the University's Sustainability Strategy, Carbon Reduction commitments, and Green Travel Plan objectives, the University is seeking to expand its EV charging infrastructure to support this transition and encourage lower-emission travel choices. The University's Egham campus currently has provision four (4) dual-socket EV charging units located in Car Park 4. These units are in regular use and demand for EV charging is forecast to increase over the coming years. To support this anticipated growth, the University proposes the installation of a further nine (9) dual-socket EV charging units across four (4) additional campus car parks. The Supplier shall be responsible for the design, supply, installation, management, and ongoing maintenance of EV charging equipment and associated infrastructure. The scope of the project includes both the new charging units and, upon contract expiry (01 September 2027), the ongoing management and maintenance of the four (4) existing dual-socket units, with the objective of delivering a single, cohesive solution across the campus. All EV charging infrastructure forming part of this Contract, shall be installed within University owned private car parks at the Egham campus. The University reserves the right to instruct the Supplier to undertake additional, related Services that support the successful purchase, installation, commissioning, operation, servicing and maintenance of EV Charging Points, where such Services remain consistent with the nature, scale and purpose of the Contract. These additional requirements may include, but are not limited to: A) Additional site surveys, feasibility assessments, electrical capacity analysis or design development required to support the installation or expansion of EV Charging Points. B) Further installation, commissioning or configuration of EV Charging Points arising from changes to site layouts, usage demand or University requirements. C) Provision of additional or upgraded charging hardware, software, monitoring platforms or payment systems compatible with the existing solution. D) Supplementary servicing, maintenance, repair or replacement works relating to EV Charging Points, associated electrical infrastructure or civil works.
