This includes the maintenance, renewal and improvement of carriageways, footways, cycleways, structures, signalling and other associated assets; and the carrying out of winter maintenance services. The Council currently delivers these services through an integrated services contract of approximately £45M per annum with a private sector partner. This contract is due to expire on 31 March 2023. The new service delivery model will establish an increased in-house capability including policy setting and asset management. It is intended that this Council team will be supported by a range of contracts with external providers as follows: - A Term Maintenance Contract to include routine and reactive maintenance, minor improvement works and winter services. This will be for an initial 8-year term with options to extend by a further 4 years. - A Term Consultancy Contract to include design and other professional services. This will be an initial 8-year term with options to extend by a further 4 years. - Two separate framework arrangements each of a maximum 4-year duration. Framework One - Highways Minor Works Framework; Lot 1: Conventional surfacing work - Lot 2 Surface treatments including surface dressing - Lot 3 Minor works (£0.5M) Full details of these proposed contractual arrangements will appear in the eventual procurement documents which will be made available to economic operators following the launch of the call for competition in due course. The Council reserves the right to amend these proposed arrangements at any time up until the call(s) for competition is(are) issued and after that to the extent it is legally permissible. The procurement of the Term Maintenance Contract will commence in August 2021 with the procurement of the other contracts to commence shortly thereafter. The Council intends to publish contract notices as calls for competition pursuant to Regulations 26(8) and 49 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as amended) on or around the estimated date in II.3 of this notice. The Council will host a virtual market engagement event at 10.30am - 12 midday on 8th July 2021 at which senior representatives of the Council will provide further details of the proposed model and contracts, the procurement processes and timetables.
