The scope of the contract is the following key areas: • Half hourly meter consumption data provision to TfL's SystemsLink web portal; • Pre-configured Measuring Instruments Directive (MID) approved metering and communications equipment for free issue to TfL (whose internal electricians, framework installation contractors or any other TfL-appointed party will install the meters) in order to enable billing of tenants and general energy management & reporting for Net Zero Carbon planning. The value stated in II.1.7 of £1,499,625 is the estimated value of the contract inclusive of extension provisions, but the actual value will be dependent on volumes purchased. Lot 1: This procurement process commenced with a compliance check prior to the undertaking of any technical or commercial submission evaluation. Economic operators must have passed this compliance check to further progress in the tender evaluation process. The contract was awarded to the economic operator who submitted the Most Economically Advantageous Tender (MEAT) based on the evaluation criteria and weightings as set out in the ITT tender pack. The successful economic operator will be undertaking a proof of solution phase. Refer to II.2.14 for further details on the proof of solution phase and the conditions of contract performance. The duration stated in II.2.11 comprises a core term of five (5) years with an option to extend in period(s) of up to a further five (5) years at the Contracting Authority's sole discretion. Additional information: The contract was awarded to the economic operator who submitted the Most Economically Advantageous Tender (MEAT) based on the evaluation criteria and weightings as set out in the ITT tender pack. Following the award of the contract, the winning economic operator will be undertaking (up to) an 8 week proof of solution phase in accordance with the specific section set out in ITT tender pack, and the winning economic operator's proof of solution plan. If the winning economic operator fails to meet the proof of solution acceptance criteria and achieve all proof of solution milestones within its proof of solution plan within the 8 week proof of solution period, the Contracting Authority may terminate the contract in accordance with its terms and award a contract to the economic operator who achieved the next highest score (who will also then be subject to (up to) an 8 week proof of solution phase). All tenders remain open for acceptance by the Contracting Authority and will not be withdrawn for a period of 6 months from the date fixed for return in order to facilitate the proof of solution phase.
