Thames Water has gone out to tender with a contract for high voltage equipment and related design and installation services worth an estimated £27 million.
The water company is looking to award a number of framework agreements for the supply of high voltage (up to 36 kV) switchgear, motor starters, transformers, associated ancillary equipment and related design and installation services.
. TWUL has approximately 150 high voltage sites across its operational water and wastewater sites. The sites vary in size from a single transformer up to large and relatively complex distribution systems with generators and/or motor drives with the majority of the latter being located in and around the London area.
The contract is being tendered in separate Lots for indoor and outdoor switchgear, motor starters and transformers. For Lot 5 - project management and installation services relating to HV equipment – Thames Water is looking for contractors with experience as a principal contractor working under the construction design management regulations. The Lot will include civil works normally associated with this type of work.
Any agreement awarded would be for an initial duration of 3 years, with options to extend annually up to a maximum overall term of 8 years.
