The procurement process is in the planning stage, with key activities taking place in early 2017, aiming for project commencement in March 2017 and completion by the Spring of that year, prior to the main athletics season. Interested contractors are invited to participate in a 'Market Engagement Event' scheduled for 30th September 2016, which will provide an opportunity for site inspection and discussions with Council officers. The project's classification falls under the CPV code for Flatwork. This tender presents significant opportunities for construction firms specializing in sports track systems and ground works, particularly those with experience in public sector contracts. Businesses that can provide qualified, accredited services as Principal Contractors are well-suited to compete for this project. The interactive nature of the upcoming Market Engagement Event enables potential bidders to gain vital insights about the project's requirements, enhancing their chances of submitting competitive bids. The Council is keen to engage in collaborative discussions, making this a promising avenue for contractors looking to expand their portfolio in the sports infrastructure sector. ## Notice Following the commissioning of a full track survey earlier this year, Cornwall Council is seeking to appoint a suitably experienced, qualified and accredited Principal Contractor, following a competitive procurement process over the coming months, to undertake a full replacement of the 400m Running Track at Par in Mid Cornwall, as well as, budget permitting, undertake the refurbishment of some of the associated track and field equipment and facilities. The Council intends for the actual works on site to commence at the beginning of March 2017 and be completed during the Spring months of 2017, prior to the commencement of the main athletics meeting season. Accordingly, the Council wishes to invite interested Contractors and/or their nominated sub-contractors, to attend a 'Market Engagement Event', which has been arranged to take place on Friday 30th September, 2016, to be held on site at Par Athletics Track, commencing at 10 am and assembling in the Sports Pavilion prior to that time. This event will include a full tour of the site and allow for an inspection of the existing facilities, site access and security and so on. The other main purpose of this event is to work collaboratively with the Council Officers present, their colleagues from Leisure Services, and the Council's recently appointed external Consultant, to help ensure that the Council will be in a position to issue a suitably detailed formal tender document, in due course, and ensure all necessary supporting information will be able to be supplied to interested Contractors to help inform their subsequent bid for the works. Attendance at this event is at the Contractors own expense but the event is designed to be mutually beneficial and interactive and help to try and ensure greater clarity and understanding, for all parties, of the requirements and process to be followed, as well as negate the need for any Contractor visits to need to occur either individually or collectively during the more formal tender process that will ensue. Par Athletics Track is easily accessible by either Road or even Rail with the mainline Railway station at Par situated very close to the main track entrance and next to that entrance there should be adequate free parking. If you wish to attend this upcoming event then please email the contact person listed in this advertisement, at your earliest convenience, and by return email you should receive a detailed agenda for the event and any other joining instructions/ requirements or supporting information. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/192de99c-82b2-4b4d-95d6-f7876b18cf36 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 19 Jun 2017 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 23 Feb 2018 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Cancelled | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CORNWALL COUNCIL | | Locality | TRURO | | Post town | Truro | | Postcode | TR1 3AY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK3 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | ITL 3 | TLK30 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | Local authority | Cornwall | | Electoral ward | Truro Boscawen & Redannick | | Westminster constituency | Truro and Falmouth | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45236000 - Flatwork ## Release History - 19 Jun 2017 at 10:45 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/192de99c-82b2-4b4d-95d6-f7876b18cf36 - 18 Nov 2016 at 20:16 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/fdc2fe38-9a2c-47a1-a5f1-ae5920384ebe ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/192de99c-82b2-4b4d-95d6-f7876b18cf36 19th June 2017 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/fdc2fe38-9a2c-47a1-a5f1-ae5920384ebe 6th September 2016 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
