What is being bought

Published requirement description

The IMO Lighting & BMS Works 2025 (Rear Wings) includes:

  1. Replacement of the existing lighting control system and light fittings with LED, including associated final design coordination, across the rear wings of the Ground, First, Second, and Fourth floors.
  2. Replacement of existing fan coil unit controllers on the fourth floor including all the necessary ancillaries, the work includes:
  • Undertake full detail design of all necessary modifications to existing control systems
  • Supply and install new outstation controllers within riser control enclosures
  • Supply and install new fan coil unit controllers and associated sensors
  • Modify BMS head end to fully incorporate new controllers

We are looking for a Principal Contractor to deliver the full work package.

It is vital that validations for the lighting upgrades areas are undertaken promptly after contract award due to material lead-times. Delays in this process may impact the project schedules.

The Department has been undertaking a phased upgrade programme for the replacement of obsolete FCU controllers. To date, the programme is approximately 50% complete and all upgrades have been undertaken Knight Controls Limited, who are also the incumbent maintenance contractor.

Tenders from alternative controls specialists will be accepted, however the contractor should provide relevant case studies demonstrating similar projects and experience with Siemens BMS Installations. This will require approval from the Project Manager prior to appointment
