What the notice says

This procurement was conducted by Worcestershire County Council on behalf of the Fourth Midlands Connect EV Infrastructure Consortium to deliver the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Scheme (LEVI) to accelerate the number of on-street Electric Vehicle Chargepoints across the consortium via a concession agreement. This consortium is made up of the following Commissioning Bodies; Leicestershire County Council, Rutland County Council District Council, Warwickshire County Council and Worcestershire County Council. The consortium approach is being used to help support the concessionaire with long term delivery of Chargepoints allowing the ability to balance the Consortium sites to ensure that rural and less affluent areas are supported. On behalf of the Consortium, Worcestershire County Council sought tenders from suitably experienced and qualified entities for the provision of this EV charging infrastructure.

What this lot covers
