Tender description

Drain clearance, maintenance and stack maintenance programme for Bristol City Council Housing Delivery. During the evaluation of the bids submitted it became clear that there were errors and omissions in the published tender documents, including the evaluation criteria. Accordingly it was not possible to evaluate the bids and achieve a result which was in line with the intended quality and service standards. In these circumstances the Council has decided to withdraw this tender in accordance with Section 1.60 of the ITT ‘The Council reserves the right to cancel the tender process or alter the above programme at any time and are not liable for any costs resulting from any alterations or cancellation’ and will be reissuing the tender with revised criteria in due course. We will be advertising the revised procurement process in the usual way and will make appropriate adjustments to avoid bidders incurring unnecessary additional cost. We consider that this is the most appropriate route to ensure that an appropriate, fair and transparent outcome is achieved through this procurement.
