What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Council’s detailed requirements for the Supplies, Services, and/or Works are set out in the suite of Specification documents, which can be accessed on the Council’s eProcurement Portal, and applicable details across all other documents which form the Procurement Document Suite.

The Council is conducting this procurement process under the Procurement Act 2023 (UKPGA 2023/54), using the Open Procedure to identify the Supplier for the Supplies, Services, and/or Works.

No information in this document is, or should be relied upon as, an undertaking or representation as to the Council's ultimate decision as to whether it will award the proposed Contract in relation to the Supplies, Services, and/or Works.

Potential Suppliers participate in this procurement process at their own risk. The Council shall not accept liability nor provide any reimbursement for any costs or losses incurred by a Potential Supplier in relation to their participation in this procurement process, nor for any cancellation or amendment to this procurement process.

The anticipated Contract Start Date for the Contract is set out in the Procurement Timetable.

The anticipated initial duration for the Contract is 24 (twenty-four) Months with an ability for the Council to extend the Contract on 2 (two) further occasions of 12 (twelve) months each, up to a maximum total contract period of 48 (forty-eight) Months. Whether, on what basis, and for what period or periods the Contract is extended, is wholly at the discretion of the Council.

The anticipated value of the Contract is included later in this notice. Potential Suppliers should note that the values are indicative only and that the Indicative Total Contract Values include the value of the Contract(s) should they be extended by the Council for the maximum period of 48 months.

For the avoidance of doubt, Potential Suppliers should be aware that following award of the Contract should the successful Supplier subsequently find that their submitted solution and/or price is not accurate and/or sustainable then the successful Supplier will not be permitted to amend their price offer to require any further monies associated with the full provision of the Supplies, Services, and/or Works.

Contract period: 1 Feb 2027 – 31 Jan 2029 (2 yrs) · up to 31 Jan 2031 with extensionsValue: £2,653,000 exc. VAT · £3,183,600 inc. VAT
Delivery: UK, LondonEligibility: SME eligible
Extensions: The Council has considered paragraph 5, Schedule 8 of the Procurement Act 2023 (UKPGA 2023/54) and identified an indicative suite of potential known risks that may materialise and in doing so may jeopardise the satisfactory performance of the Contract but, which due to their nature, are unable to be addressed in the Contract as awarded. Where the relevant conditions under paragraph 5, Schedule 8 of the Procurement Act 2023 (UKPGA 2023/54) are satisfied, the Council may make a future modification of the Contract to remedy the risks, as a permitted contract modification. For this procurement, Known Risk risks, which may materialise, and which are not otherwise already provided for in the Contract include but are not limited to the indicative suite of potential risks set out in Table D, below. This list must not be considered as exhaustive, and the Council reserves the right to amend the list during the course of the procurement process (In the event that it does so, all Potential Suppliers will be notified). It should also be noted that there may be further risks identified within the Contract term which are subject to permissible modification under other parts of Schedule 8 of the Procurement Act 2023 (UKPGA 2023/54). Potential Suppliers are reminded that consideration of the materialisation of any known risk, or any other reasons for potential modification of the Contract will not be accepted as a reason to change the risk share in the Council on the pricing, or otherwise. Known Risks Which May Materialise (Paragraph 5, Schedule 8 of the Procurement Act 2023 (UKPGA 2023/54)) and/or Other Risks Which May Arise and Require a Contract Modification Under Schedule 8 of the Procurement Act 2023 (UKPGA 2023/54), Other Than Paragraph 5 Known Risk 1. Introduction of Additional Public Spaces Protection Orders The Council may introduce new Public Spaces Protection Orders (PSPOs) during the term of the Contract or may vary existing PSPOs to address emerging environmental crime or anti-social behaviour issues. The introduction of additional PSPOs could significantly increase enforcement activity, staffing requirements, training requirements, administration, data reporting, and management oversight. The extent of any increase cannot be accurately quantified at the commencement of the Contract. The Council is unable to determine at this stage whether additional PSPOs will be required, the nature of any future restrictions, the geographic scope of such PSPOs, or the corresponding enforcement demand. Should this risk materialise, the Council reserves the right to modify the Contract to reflect changes in service requirements, staffing levels, performance measures, operational arrangements, and/or contract value. 2. Significant Increase in Fixed Penalty Notice (FPN) Volumes The volume of environmental offences and resulting FPNs may exceed forecast levels during the Contract term. This could result in additional officer deployment, increased administrative processing, appeals management, debt recovery activity, reporting requirements, and customer enquiries. Actual levels of offending, compliance rates and enforcement demand are influenced by external factors and cannot be reliably predicted throughout the Contract term. Should enforcement activity substantially exceed initial assumptions, the Council may seek to modify the Contract to ensure sufficient resources are available to maintain service performance. 3. Changes in Enforcement Priorities Emerging environmental issues, resident concerns, legislative changes, or strategic priorities may require enforcement resources to be redirected and/or expanded. The Council cannot accurately predict future environmental crime trends or community concerns over the life of the Contract and therefore may modify the Contract Scope, performance framework, specification, or resource requirements where necessary. · Option to extend by 2 years (1+1) at Councils discretion

Pre-qualification & selection criteria (PQQ)1
  • Condition of participation

    The Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) identified in Table F of the Council's ITT and published on its eProcurement portal consists of 3 (three) parts, where Part 3: Questions Relating to Conditions of Participation (CoP) includes where the Council has set CoP which a Potential Supplier must satisfy in order to be awarded a public contract, these relate to the Potential Supplier's legal and financial capacity and/or their technical ability to perform the Contract(s).

    As part of the Council’s financial capacity assessment, the Council will assess the financial standing of all Potential Suppliers/Lead Potential Suppliers, all members of a Group and/or all Significant Subcontractors (as applicable), who must certify that their annual turnover is at least double the published annual Contract value for which the Potential Supplier is submitting a Procurement Response (the “Turnover Test”). The Turnover Test in this procurement is a minimum financial threshold as referenced by PSQ question 0.13.c. and Potential Suppliers should provide the required certification in answer to that question. In addition, third party credit checks (if available) will be undertaken on the preferred Supplier/Lead Supplier, all members of a Group, and/or all Significant Subcontractors (as applicable) prior to Contract award and the Council reserves the right to undertake such checks should it wish to do so.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 60 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.

About this data
  • Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
  • Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
  • Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the match score are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
  • Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
