Description of the procurement
This lot is for general coastal maintenance and civils works to construct, replace or maintain coastal structures with a typical value between 20 000 GBP and 150 000 GBP. Example works may include, but are not limited to, timber groyne and revetment works, rock armour works, historic seawall repairs, concrete slab and seawall replacement, concrete revetment replacement and repair, toe piling, rock gabions, flood embankments, and low value beach management works.
No upper limit will be applied to the value of work packages, subject to suppliers passing further financial and insurance checks if required, and occasionally larger schemes such as a seawall sectional replacement may be let via this lot.
In order to establish the lot bids were invited for the delivery of 2 schemes:
1) Various timber maintenance works at East Stoke, Hayling Island; and
2) Removal and replacement of gabion baskets at Wallington River, Fareham. The bidder with the highest total score for the scheme in question was awarded that individual contract. Bids had to be submitted for both schemes, the total scores of which were combined to give an overall score for the lot. Rankings on the lot were awarded based on the descending order of these scores.
The top 4 ranked bidders were awarded a place on the Primary Tier, subject to meeting additional Primary Tier minimum requirements, and the next 6 awarded a position on the Secondary Tier.
