ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE

Description

The Association of North East Council Trading as the North East Procurement Organisation (NEPO) is seeking to establish a multi-supplier framework agreement for the installation and operation of electric vehicle charging infrastructure on behalf of a public sector body under a call-off contractual arrangement.
This framework and future call-offs are relevant for the installation of electric vehicle infrastructure and units. This can be provided by the public sector body themselves, a national
Government department (such as LEVI/OZEV/Levelling Up), or via a third party intermediatory such as the North East Combined Authority.
NEPO is looking to award a procurement solution to assist the longer-term investment in the regional electric vehicle charging infrastructure (EVCI). This investment is needed to upgrade, operate, and maintain the current network and resource expansion to establish a sustainable long-term future.
The intention is to establish a multi-supplier Framework Agreement for use by NEPO Member Authorities and Associate Members.
