NOTE: This notice was updated on 13 July 2023 for the following reason: This tender has not been awarded and withdrawn. We will review and reduce our requirement and issue an ITQ for the reduced workload.(The contract has two phases. The first phase is the design and installation of a replacement air conditioning system to our Bristol office. The second is maintenance and servicing of the newly installed system along with other mechanical and electrical infrastructure on site.

The works are replacement of the air conditioning system at our Bristol office with a new VRV system. The existing chiller has failed multiple times and spare parts are getting difficult to source. It is therefore proposed to change the four-pipe unit with multiple VRV units covering the building in zones.

The works include replacement of the existing air conditioning system and integration of the new system into the existing air handling unit (AHU). There is also a requirement to replacement the BMS system which is no longer supported by the existing manufacturers who has ceased trading.

We expect the construction works to be delivered by 25th September 2023. We expect the works to be phased with the building in part occupation during the works.

The servicing and maintenance, operational phase to commence at completion of the construction works and then continue yearly for 4 years with an option for a further two one year extensions.
