Contract for LED Conversion; Management and Maintenance of Sprowston Town Council Streetlights
Authority: Sprowston Town Council (Local council)·Consortium: 2 public authorities
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionSprowston Town Council currently has a mixture of street lighting types. We own approximately 700 non-LED streetlights which require conversion to LED lighting. In addition, the Council owns approximately 140 existing LED lights of varying ages and specification.
The Council is also looking for concurrent implementation of a Central Management System (to be managed by the successful bidder) that will allow real time or near-real time fault self-reporting across our entire lighting stock. The Central Management System must also support bespoke, programmable, part-night lighting and/or dimming profiles on a column-by-column or street-by-street basis.
We require all of the above to be managed and maintained by the successful bidder, for the duration of the contract.
