Total Quantity or Scope

Transport for London (TfL) is seeking to appoint a Service Provider on an initial 5-year basis, with provisions to extend for up to a further 5 years at TfL's discretion. The scope of the contract is the following key areas: • Half hourly meter consumption data provision to TfL's SystemsLink web portal; • Pre-configured Measuring Instruments Directive (MID) approved metering & comms equipment for free issue to TfL's internal electricians as well as any framework installation contractors required (or any other TfL-appointed party) to install the meters in order to enable billing of tenants and general energy management & reporting for Net Zero Carbon planning. The publication of this PIN to inform the market of a potential upcoming tender follows the successful proof of concept works during 2022 that: • Installed multiple electricity meter types using 4G, NB-IOT and TfL corporate WiFi comms routes to provide data to a central cloud portal; • Tested comms options for water meter and electricity meter Modbus loggers; • Integrated onward csv file provision of the half hourly meter consumption data to TfL's SystemsLink web portal; • Provided a scope of works for TfL corporate WiFi rollout to all WiFi access points across the portfolio. Any potential future procurement with associated documents will be published on TfL's sourcing system.
