Following award the contract will start late Dec 2023 /early Jan 2024, with design complete by end of Q1 2024. This will be followed by an 11-month period for manufacture, supply & installation, with a further month for testing & commissioning, completing by 31st March 2025. Contract form will be NEC 4 Engineering and Construction Contract (EEC) with Option A.
2. CONTRACT TO PROVIDE ONGOING MAINTENANCE & SERVICING OF EQUIPMENT - Value is in the range 10,000 - 15,000 per annum. The initial period is for 3 years in the range of 30,000-45,000. An option to extend for a further 7 years, to a maximum total 10-year term would be in the range of 100,000 - 150,000. Contract form will be NEC 4 Term Service Contract (TSC) with Option A.
It is the council's clear preference for the successful Tenderer to enter into a contract on the basis of these terms and conditions, which have not been subject to any material changes.
Where changes are proposed that significantly alter the relative commercial and risk positions of the parties to the detriment of the council, this will result in significantly lower scores for this section of the proposal and may even result in bids being set aside in their entirety.
