In plain English
The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) wants a contractor to replace the ageing standby power generators and fuel tanks serving Research Buildings 1 and 2 at its South Mimms site in Hertfordshire. The work includes the electrical systems, controls and building management links needed to keep backup power running. The site is an operational medical research facility, so the work must be planned to avoid disrupting services.
What the buyer wants
• Design, supply, install, test, commission and hand over replacement standby generators, fuel tanks and associated electrical infrastructure • Price four delivery options, from like-for-like generator replacement up to enhanced resilience with new generator compounds, switchboards and larger fuel storage • Deliver the work on a live research site with minimal disruption, including training and handover for the client's staff
Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
Most small businesses would be ruled out by the £860,000 value, the combined design and installation scope covering generators, fuel infrastructure and electrical controls, and the need to deliver safely on a live medical research site.
How to bid
