Construction work

Tender description

The Council is carrying out this market engagement exercise to seek intelligence from the market in order to help shape any forthcoming procurement. Therefore interested supplier's are invited to complete and submit the supplier questionnaire (please see Appendix A — separate MS Word document) following the instructions in PPME Document. Supplier questionnaire’s must be received by 12.00 (noon) on the 20.9.2019. The Council currently has an existing framework agreement to run the structural maintenance and road treatment services which runs from October 2016 to September 2020. It is considered advantageous to maintain this form of agreement whilst seeking to expand on the scope to incorporate a one-and-done service. As such the Council has provisionally scoped for the structural maintenance and resurfacing treatments framework as laid out in Section 4. The Council’s vision is to work with its service providers to evolve the highways service to deliver best value for Hertfordshire throughout the duration of the various contracts. This market engagement exercise represents the first stage of the pre-procurement process, aiming to achieve the following: — determine market interest in this framework, — help define and refine the scope, and — identify whether it is beneficial to apportion the work across the individual lots.
