Summary of the contracting process

Independence C I C procured works to provide hardstanding and access ramps, under a requirement titled “Ramps, Paths and Hardstanding including Handrails”. The item description identifies hardstanding, while the title indicates the wider scope also covers ramps, paths and handrails. The procurement is classified as works, specifically access ramps (CPV 34953000). The listed delivery coverage includes the United Kingdom, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, British Overseas Territories, Europe and the rest of the world. This broad coverage means the requirement is not confined to one named town or site; businesses considering comparable work should be able to serve the relevant delivery locations.

The procurement is complete and an award was made to the selected supplier, identified in the published data by its company registration number 3678208. The award date was 10 November 2021. The stated tender deadline was 9 November 2021 at 17:00 UTC. The contract period ran from 3 January to 17 April 2024. The estimated tender value was £87,666, but the award value is recorded as £0, so no positive awarded amount is established by these figures. This was an award under Lot 8 of the ARMI DPS, covering ramps, paths and hardstanding including handrails. The procurement data does not describe the evaluation basis or set out supplier eligibility requirements.

This award shows demand from Independence C I C for hardstanding and associated access works, including ramps, paths and handrails. The requirement is relevant to contractors able to deliver this combination of external access and surfacing works across a geographically broad service area, rather than only at a single named site. The procurement identifies the work as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises, and the selected supplier is recorded as an SME and VCSE. That provides evidence that a smaller or community-focused contractor can be a credible provider for this buyer’s requirement. Businesses preparing for comparable future work should be able to demonstrate practical delivery capacity across the stated scope and locations.
