Description
Hampshire County Council is seeking the views of providers who may be interested in tendering for a Framework for the Manufacture, Supply and Installation of Lock Gates on Basingstoke Canal.
The Council intends to engage with the market using a questionnaire. The objective of the questionnaire is to understand the capabilities within the market, and to gain insight into the most suitable delivery model. Responses may be used to support the development of the specification and to inform the future framework structure.
The current proposal is to put in place a 4-year multi-supplier framework, with one lot for a measure, build and install service. The framework will be limited to 3 suppliers. Hampshire County Council will be the lead contracting authority, with the framework available for use by the following contracting authorities: Hampshire County Council and Surrey County Council.
To view and submit the questionnaire, please visit the Council's e-tendering portal In-Tend: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/hampshire/.
The questionnaire must be submitted via In-Tend correspondence by no later than 5pm on the 9th August 2024.
Any questions on the content of the questionnaire should also be submitted via In-Tend correspondence.
Completion of the questionnaire does not constitute an expression of interest in any future tender. Responses will not be used to evaluate your company, create a short-list or guarantee inclusion or exclusion in any resulting tender exercise.
