This project falls under the services category of the architectural, construction, and engineering industry, specifically focusing on highways consultancy. The tender process is currently in the planning stage, with a submission deadline of 1st March 2019. The anticipated contract period begins on 25th March 2019 and extends to 1st December 2019. The required delivery dates for the project's two stages are 31st August 2019 for establishing the scheme and 1st December 2019 for its implementation. The financial threshold for bids ranges from £25,000 to £45,000. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in project management consultancy, highway operation services, and engineering consultancy. Companies that can provide strategic advice, regulatory compliance, and effective implementation strategies will find this procurement particularly relevant. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, especially those with experience in managing similar projects within the public sector or delivering services that support operational efficiency in road network management. ## Notice The Council wishes to establish a contract for the provision of advice and support for the implementation of a street works permit scheme. The Council runs a successful noticing scheme but now wants to implement a permit scheme in order to achieve better control of street works and to use all the statutory powers available to manage its road network as effectively as possible. It does not, however, have the capacity to undertake the necessary work to determine what is the right type of permit scheme for its area and to implement it successfully. The Council is not intending to join a common permit scheme but is aiming to achieve consistency, as far as possible, with other authorities in the South West of England. The outcome of this contract would be the provision of advice, undertaking work and support that would lead to the Council running a successful permit scheme that complies with the relevant legislation, DfT guidelines and is financially sustainable. To identify the optimum permit scheme for the Council, the financial impact and operating model, producing the necessary documentation and analysis in accordance with regulations and DfT guidance, and assisting in consultation, testing and helping the Council in implementing the schemes. The applicant is to provide advice and support on undertaking each of the tasks of implementing a permit scheme contained in the DfT's checklist. It is anticipated that the work would be undertaken in two stages: establishing the permit scheme and then its implementation. Stage 1. Establishing the permit schemes Stage 2. Implementing the permit scheme Required Delivery Date Stage 1: 31st August 2019 Stage 2: 1st December 2019. This date will need to be kept under review due to the uncertainties associated with the introduction of the DfT's Street Manager project and how this will affect the IT street works systems used by the authorities. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/228bc05b-b079-4d04-beeb-cb56414e405f | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not applicable | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 4 Feb 2019 | | Submission deadline | 1 Mar 2019 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 25 Mar 2019 - 1 Dec 2019 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £45,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | GLOUCESTERSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | GLOUCESTER | | Post town | Gloucester | | Postcode | GL1 2TG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK7 Gloucestershire and Wiltshire | | ITL 3 | TLK73 Gloucestershire CC | | Local authority | Gloucester | | Electoral ward | Westgate | | Westminster constituency | Gloucester | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 63 - Supporting and auxiliary transport services; travel agencies services - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 63712200 - Highway operation services - 71000000 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 71311210 - Highways consultancy services - 71311220 - Highways engineering services - 72224000 - Project management consultancy services ## Release History - 4 Feb 2019 at 19:29 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/228bc05b-b079-4d04-beeb-cb56414e405f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/228bc05b-b079-4d04-beeb-cb56414e405f 4th February 2019 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=896d4324-b228-e911-80f2-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - http://www.gloucestershire.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
