- 31110000 - Electric motors
two.1.3) Type of contract
Supplies
two.1.4) Short description
The requirement is for the supply of low voltage electric motors, predominantly on a replacement basis for motors linked to existing UU assets. UU has identified a requirement to improve the efficiency of the motors it purchases and therefore a drive to purchase motors certified to IE4 class efficiency where it is feasible to do so, and IE3 class efficiency where IE4 is not feasible. UU purchase a wide range of assets including, but not limited to, Pumps, Screens, Conveyors, Scrapers, Filtration Systems and Centrifuges. All of these assets are supplied with a motor, often unique to the performance of the asset, as a component of the equipment. If the motor fails at any point during the lifetime and cannot be repaired or it is deemed commercially unviable to repair, there is a need for UU to replace the motor in a timely manner to ensure production and site operations continue.

two.2.4) Description of the procurement
The requirement is for the supply of low voltage electric motors, predominantly on a replacement basis for motors linked to existing UU assets. UU has identified a requirement to improve the efficiency of the motors it purchases and therefore a drive to purchase motors certified to IE4 class efficiency where it is feasible to do so, and IE3 class efficiency where IE4 is not feasible. UU purchase a wide range of assets including, but not limited to, Pumps, Screens, Conveyors, Scrapers, Filtration Systems and Centrifuges. All of these assets are supplied with a motor, often unique to the performance of the asset, as a component of the equipment. If the motor fails at any point during the lifetime and cannot be repaired or it is deemed commercially unviable to repair, there is a need for UU to replace the motor in a timely manner to ensure production and site operations continue.
The purpose is therefore to develop a framework to provide a streamlined and more efficient system of purchasing motors and to maximise the benefits through a managed contract with a selected supplier base (UU proposes to award to 2 (two) suppliers at the conclusion of the tender process). The framework will be utilised directly by UU and therefore the Supplier will be required to work directly with UU in terms of ordering, delivery and technical support including assisting in motor selection and supporting the company drive for IE4., governed by agreed pricing and framework terms & conditions. The Supplier(s) will also be required to procure and supply specific OEM motors for UU in situations where a specific need arises, and whilst this is anticipated to be a small percentage of the overall needs, the Bidder must have the capacity to provide this distributor supply model, governed by a cost-plus pricing mechanism.
