    Brief

    The Pirbright Institute seeks a single supplier to design and build a permanent automatic emergency power backup system for its CVIM building located in Ash Road, Pirbright, Surrey. The project aims to maintain electrical supply continuity during power failures, protect vaccine production operations, and reduce financial losses from downtime. The scope includes: supply and installation of a 510kVA three-phase diesel generator with day tank; construction of a 6m x 3m x 0.5m concrete foundation pad; installation of an Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) that automatically detects mains power failure and switches to generator supply; integration with the existing fuel tank via pipe-in-pipe connection with low-level shut-off controls; all wiring, cabling, and connections from the T8 substation; commissioning and testing facilities; provision for future plug-in generator connection; and alarm capability to alert the BACS control room. The contract requires a Stage 4 electrical design with client-nominated designer and project manager. The supplier will act as Principal Contractor responsible for all design, supply, installation, testing, commissioning, and handover including the Project Information Folder.
