Description

This is a Request for Proposal for the supply and installation of Electric Vehicle Charging Points (EVCPs) to a range of sites across the National Trust, which covers England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

The National Trust recognises a growing need to have an agreement in place for EVCPs. To support this, the National Trust have an existing contract with a supplier for the installation of EVCPs in our larger visitor car parks, but we have an additional requirement to provide an alternative solution for our 500+ holiday cottages and campsites, smaller visitor attractions and back of house charging for estate vehicles.
As a result of this tender process, the National Trust is looking to set up a contract with the successful Proposer which will be communicated to all properties. It is envisaged that this agreement will run for 3 years with an option to extend.

This is a two-stage process.
Stage one will consider the following
• Financial and economic strengths
• Eligibility
• Technical and/or professional capability
• Cultural fit with the National Trust
Successful bidders will be invited to stage two which will consider proposals and pricing.
