The West Mercia Police Contracts and Procurement Team, acting on behalf of the Police and Crime Commissioner for West Mercia (the Authority), is commencing a regulated below threshold procurement process under the Procurement Act 2023 for the delivery of Photovoltaic (PV) Solar Array installations (rooftop) at the Hindlip Estate, commencing with Phase 1 – OCC Southwell House (Reference: EST26-2724) with the opportunity for future Photovoltaic (PV) Solar Array installations call-offs under a base agreement with the individual call-offs instructed under JCT Design & Build 2024. The Authority intends, subject to approval, to deliver additional phases of photovoltaic (PV) solar installations across its estate beyond Phase 1. Following completion of the procurement process, the Authority will aim to establish a contractual arrangement with the successful bidder, that enables the call-off of future phases without the need to undertake a separate procurement exercise for each phase. The Authority does not guarantee that any future phases will be delivered or that any minimum volume or value of work will be awarded. The decision to utilise any call-off mechanism will be entirely at the Authority’s sole discretion. Nothing in this procurement process or any resulting contract shall be interpreted as granting exclusivity for future works, unless expressly stated within the final contract documentation. This Expression of Interest (EOI) represents Stage 1 of the procurement process. Its purpose is to identify and confirm supplier interest in the opportunity and establish the pool of suppliers who will be invited to progress to Stage 2 (Conditions of Participation). Suppliers wishing to participate in this opportunity must complete this EOI (details further below in the document). Only those suppliers who submit a compliant response will be invited to progress to the next stage of the procurement process. At this stage, the Authority is not seeking detailed tenders or formal proposals. The EOI is not an evaluation stage, and responses will not be scored against award criteria. However, information provided may be reviewed to confirm supplier interest and support the effective delivery of subsequent procurement stages. This approach supports the Authority in meeting its obligations under the Procurement Act 2023 by promoting transparency, encouraging competition (including SME participation), and ensuring a proportionate and efficient procurement process. The Authority reserves the right to exclude any supplier where information provided is incomplete, inaccurate, or gives rise to concerns regarding the supplier’s suitability to proceed.
