Summary of the contracting process

Hart District Council is procuring works to remove existing fencing and install approximately 1,800 metres of ClipEx stock fencing at Fleet Pond Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), in two adjoining areas. The work is a fencing installation project, including the replacement of the current boundary or stock fencing. Delivery is at Fleet Pond, in Fleet, Hampshire. The requirement is being bought by Hart District Council, a local public authority. The technical specification and request for quotation provide the detailed requirements for the two work areas. This opportunity is relevant to contractors providing stock-fencing installation and associated removal works, particularly those able to operate at an environmentally sensitive SSSI location.

The procurement has reached tender: Hart District Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The deadline for enquiries was 29 July 2026 at 12:00, and the deadline for submitting offers is 12 August 2026 at 12:00. Electronic submission is allowed. The estimated value is £57,000 excluding VAT, or £68,400 including VAT. The contract is planned to start on 1 September 2026 and finish on 30 September 2026, with a preferred delivery period of 28 days. The contract may be extended, with completion required by 31 December 2026. There is one lot, and the request for quotation sets out the detailed evaluation criteria and scoring basis.

This opportunity suits fencing contractors with practical experience removing existing fencing and installing ClipEx stock fencing at scale. Suppliers need the workforce, equipment and materials to complete approximately 1,800 metres across two adjoining areas, while managing work at Fleet Pond SSSI. The planned delivery window is short, so bidders should be able to mobilise promptly and coordinate labour, materials and site operations for the required installation period. The requirement is explicitly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to established local fencing businesses as well as larger contractors. Experience working around environmentally sensitive sites, protecting surrounding habitats and managing weather-related changes would help suppliers demonstrate their ability to deliver the works safely and effectively.
