Network Boiler Refurbishment

Description

This contract relates to the continuance of NGN's boiler replacement program across the network and comprises five further sites. The proposal to source this contract directly with this supplier is based on standardization and the benefits gained from such an approach including maintenance, commonality of spares (supply and stockholding), servicing and associated training requirements. Having a consistent approach across the network gives efficiencies in all these areas. Lot 1: The work associated with this contract modification relates to necessary extensions of scope to fulfil the overall project requirements that were not originally envisaged as required. These additions include the provision of temporary hoses, additional delivery cost, system flushing and storage costs as well as an additional boiler which replaces and existing unit originally considered fit for purpose. Subsequent load calculations proved that this was not the case.
