The tender price must include all supply and installation costs, removal costs and an independent Post Installation Inspection Report and a sign to be displayed in the Park. All equipment supplied must confirm to relevant standards, including BSEN 1176 and 1177. Bidders must have a turnover of at least twice the contract value (£75k x 2). Tenders will be awarded on the basis of bidders’ responses to a set of evaluation questions. These will include questions about the design of the equipment and the installation process. Please note: there is a fixed sum of £75,000 for this contract. The Council is seeking tenders that maximise this available funding. Hence, bidders will be asked to demonstrate how best they will make use of this sum rather than to compete on price. Therefore, ‘price’ will not be scored as part of the evaluation. Tenders in excess of the available funding will not be considered.
