Scaffolding Tender (Southern Water)

  • Southern Water Services Limited

Procurement identifier (OCID): ocds-h6vhtk-04ec05

Description

The nature of the work required is to design, supply, erect, install, inspect, hire, remove, adopt, manage compliance, manage H&S regs (but not limited to) of all scaffolding requirements for Southern Water. Either as planned work or on a reactive basis, both within normal working hours (08:00-16:00) and outside of these hours, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This can include for third party contractors who will be able to engage with the Framework Scaffolding Suppliers on a one-to-one basis as if they were Southern Water employees. Full details of Southern Water's requirements are set out in the specification.

This procurement is set out in 3 lots by regional location.

Lot 1 Kent Primary Supplier

Lot 2 Sussex Primary Supplier

Lot 3 Hampshire & Isle of Wight Primary Supplier

Tenderers are only permitted to submit a maximum of two (2) bids across all lots in accordance with the lotting structure set out in the Information & Instruction to Tenderers ("IITT") document. Acting as a secondary or tertiary supplier as detailed in Table 1 may be a rare occurrence but must be able to deliver services in the areas should that requirement arise.

This limitation is in place to ensure that Southern Water maintains a suitable level of resilience within its supply chain, reducing dependency on a limited number of suppliers and promoting diversity in service provision.

Any tenderer submitting more than two bids across Lots 1-3 will have only the first two bids received (based on submission timestamp) evaluated. Any additional bids beyond this limit will be disregarded and not considered for evaluation.
