Authority: The North Yorkshire Council (Local council)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThe North Yorkshire Council requires a maintenance contract for it's Swing Bridges including but not limited to: Selby Town Swing Bridge Cawood Swing Bridge (Selby) A63 Bypass Swing Bridge (Selby) Whitby Swing Bridge Maintenance Or as any other requirements or as service delivery dictates. The Services will include carrying out scheduled maintenance and servicing tasks, respond to emergency 24hr call out services within3 hours, carry out Task Orders, provide advise, recommendations and reports to ensure the continuous and safe operation of the bridges. The contractor shall provide agreed Traffic Management systems and all parts and materials required. The contractor will also be available for Remote Support as required.
- No preliminary market engagement: The Council considered whether to publish an advance or intention‑to‑procure notice. Given that this procurement is a re‑procurement of an established service within a well‑understood and specialist market, and that the Open Procedure provides unrestricted access to all capable suppliers, it was concluded that an advance notice would not add value or materially influence competition. Proceeding directly to Tender Notice was therefore considered proportionate and compliant.
