1299 - Charging as a Service (CaaS)

YPO are looking for Providers to be appointed onto a Framework Agreement for the

provision of Charging of a Service (CaaS) should this PME progress to full tender.

It is proposed that we will be looking for the following Lot Structure :-

Lot 3 – Management, Maintenance, Support and Repairs

Lot 4 – Charging and Billing

Lot 9 – Finance

Lot 10 – External Battery Solutions

Lot 11 – Training

As part of the PME, we have created a brief questionnaire for both customers and suppliers which can be found here:

Customers (Contracting Authorities): forms.office.com/e/qxRuL8jaa7 ↗

Suppliers: forms.office.com/e/pBQ0JJJjzw ↗

Following the questionnaire, there is an option to engage further as part of this PME which can be arranged on a one to one basis.

It is proposed that this Framework will form a contractual relationship where the end customer will place orders directly with the Provider on a “contract” basis and the Provider will deliver direct to the end customer on an agreed basis.

This is subject to change following the conclusion of our market engagement process.

The request for information is to undertake pre-market engagement only and is being sought without prejudice and without commitment. Any information provided will not be used to determine the outcome of the tender process. When, or if, YPO wishes to proceed further a formal procurement process will be followed in accordance with YPO's contract procedure rules and in line with the Procurement Act 2023.
