What is being bought

Published requirement description

To carry out specialist CCTV Surveys to 23 structures (Bridges & Culverts) around the Wigan Borough in accordance with the performance specification and works information pack. The Authority considers all the sites to be confined spaces. The inspections will require either Pan & Tilt CCTV crawler unit or Man Entry methods or a combination of both (some sites are walk-through, some of which have restricted freeboard and others are CCTV crawler unit only). In all cases a remote-control unit with viewing station is required to enable Council officers to supervise the operations. Some sites are ladder access over parapet walls, some via standard manhole covers and others access is obtained via a sloped embankment to a watercourse.

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.
