Transport for London (TfL) is issuing a Preliminary Market Engagement Notice to obtain market feedback in relation to the Greenwich Bunds Re-Lining Project. TfL invites suppliers to participate in this Preliminary Market Engagement exercise to help shape the upcoming procurement opportunity. This is a valuable chance to engage with us early, gain insight into our requirements and contribute your expertise. This preliminary market engagement is targeting suppliers that can take on the Principal Designer and Principal Contractor role to undertake Detailed Design and Delivery of the Greenwich Bunds Re-Lining Project. Also, this will determine the appetite for this project which has a complex location requiring compliance to environmental regulations and poses risks to the environment, confined spaces and explosions The primary focus of the Market engagement is to better understand the market, supplier appetite, capacity and capability, as well as perceived risks and opportunities in relation to the development and finalisation of the commercial strategy for TfL's Greenwich Bunds Re-Lining Project. The engagement will also provide feedback and help to develop the procurement strategy for the Project's procurement. The Greenwich Bunds Re-Lining project is located at Greenwich Power Station which is a critical standby power facility operated by Transport for London (TfL). The station is fuelled by oil stored in five storage tanks, each housed in individual reinforced concrete bunds. These bunds, partially below ground level and situated close to the River Thames, are designed to contain any potential oil leaks, thereby preventing the risk of fuel oil seeping into the subsoil and ultimately into the river. The bunds have deteriorated over time and reached the end of their design life, posing a risk of environmental contamination. This necessitates a project to replace the lining of the five storage tank bunds with the addition of a reception tank bund and pump bund. This project aims to ensure the bunds' ability to contain oil in the event of a tank failure and compliance with environmental regulations. Full details on how to participate in this Preliminary Market Engagement Exercise are included in this notice.
