Framework for the Design, Supply, and Installation of Solar PV in Operational Commercial Properties in Sunderland

Description

Sunderland City Council are seeking to engage with Suppliers in relation to their intent to procure a framework for the Design (where required), Supply, Installation and Commissioning of solar PV installations in commercial operational sites in Sunderland. The Framework will be structured into 2 lots as follows. • Lot 1 - The Design, Supply, and Installation of Solar PV up to 50Kwp in Operational Commercial Properties in Sunderland. • Lot 2 - The Design, Supply, and Installation of Solar PV Greater than 50Kwp in Operational Commercial Properties in Sunderland. OTHER INFORMATION Whilst the scope of the framework is structured predominantly for installations in operational commercial properties, the Council may from time to time require an installation in a domestic property. In such instances the call off will be clearly identified as a domestic property installation and will be issued through the relevant framework lot. There may be instances where some schemes called off under the framework may require the addition of battery storage to complement the Solar PV installation. It is envisaged that the form of contract will be JCT Minor Works, and in some cases, there will be a requirement for the Supplier to take design responsibility of an element of design using a Contractors Design Portion (CDP) in the JCT form of contract. In some smaller schemes where a JCT form of contract is not suitable the Council will issue bespoke terms and Conditions for the scheme with the contract documents.
