Notice Information
Notice Title
Refurbishment of two Broads Authority toilet and shower facilities
Notice Description
Broads Authority is seeking a suitably qualified and experienced contractor to design the layout and install improved public amenities with increased user accessibility. The refurbishment will include a complete internal overhaul of the existing public toilet block at Acle Bridge (including adding shower cubicles) and an existing toilet/shower block at Great Yarmouth Yacht Station.
Planning Information
Scope of Works At both sites, this includes stripping out existing cubicles, basins, showers, plumbing, tiles, and fittings, returning to the existing building shell. Installation of indoor public showers (payment and timer operated). New plumbing, ventilation, lighting, and drainage connections. The Broads Authority wants to refurbish using low-water fittings, motion sensors, LED lighting and a modern, robust design. Key market questions 1. What materials and designs would best ensure durability and vandal resistance? 2. What energy-efficient and water-saving technologies would you recommend? 3. What is your experience delivering similar public amenities? 4. What are indicative cost ranges for similar projects? 5. What are realistic lead times from order to completion? 6. Are there modular or prefabricated solutions we should consider? 7. What payment systems that avoid coins or tokens are available? Response Instructions Suppliers should email responses to this preliminary market engagement (PME) process by emailing replies to rob.rogers@broads-authority.gov.uk, marking the response for the attention of Rob Rogers, Director of Delivery. The submission deadline is 4 weeks from input date. This PME process requests that suppliers include details of relevant projects they have completed, along with an estimate of costs and timescales for completion. Confidentiality & Disclaimer This Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) is not a commitment to purchase, and it is not part of the tendering process. The information received will inform our future procurement, and participation in the PME process does not guarantee inclusion or success in any future tender process.
