The services are required in order to aid the progression of the Tipner West Regeneration Project. The estimated total value of the works across both packages is approx. £525,000 exclusive of VAT. Due to the differing selection criteria requirements and work methods the packages are being procured as 2 separate Lots. Contractors can bid for either or both lots. The Lots are as follows: Lot 1: Intrusive ground investigation surveys - Value estimate £450,000. Let using a single stage ICC UK Specification for Ground Investigations and associated re-measurable BOQ contract. Works to begin in April and must be complete by July 2024 or earlier if possible. Lot 2: Non-intrusive archaeological and ecology surveys. - Value range estimate of £50,000 - £75,000. Let using a NEC4 PS Short Form contract on a fixed price basis. Works must be completed by April 2024 or earlier if possible. The council is not inviting combined offers for both Lots and will award a separate to the highest scoring bidder for each Lot. The council's position is that the contracts are classified as works contracts under the Pubic Contracts Regulations (2015). The council is issuing a Contract Notice in the interests of competition and transparency. The procurement process will be run in accordance with the Open Procedure as set out within the Public Contracts Regulations (2015) although this does not alter the council's position in respect of the works falling below statutory thresholds and does not make remedies set out under the Public Contracts Regulations (2015) available to bidders.
