Description
The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) is seeking to appoint a suitably qualified contractor to undertake the design, supply, installation, testing, commissioning and handover of replacement standby power generation systems and associated fuel infrastructure serving Research Buildings 1 and 2 at the MHRA Laboratories site, Blanche Lane, South Mimms, Hertfordshire. The contract includes the replacement of existing end-of-life generator assets and fuel tanks, associated electrical infrastructure, control systems, building management system interfaces, commissioning, training and handover activities. Tenderers are required to submit solutions and pricing for four defined delivery options, ranging from like-for-like generator replacement through to enhanced resilience solutions involving new generator compounds, switchboard arrangements and expanded fuel storage capacity. The works will be delivered on an operational medical research site and require careful coordination to maintain continuity of services, minimise operational disruption and preserve standby power resilience throughout delivery. In order to access the tender documentation suppliers must sign an NDA and follow the instructions in the Supplier Instruction folder on Atamis. The project reference is C485407
