What is being bought

Published requirement description

In order for the Council to adequately respond to certain emergency events, there is a requirement to provide temporary power. 9 sites have been identified which will be used as Public Advice Centres requiring the option for temporary power. To ensure that the generators are kept ready for quick deployment, there is a requirement to provide a maintenance and servicing package. This package should include for a major service to be undertaken annually, with a minor service carried out on a 6 monthly basis. The duration of these potential emergency events is unknown. There may therefore be the requirement for additional fuel tanks to ensure no disruption to provision of power at some sites. This contract is for the supply of 9 generators and additional fuel tanks to be mounted on trailers for easy transportation and deployment. These will be used mainly in case of emergencies and for some external events. Contractors are also requested to provide costs for maintenance and servicing of the generators.
