## Summary

The St Ives Town Council is seeking tenders for the Wet Pour contract, which involves the refurbishment of eight play areas in St Ives, Cambridgeshire. This project falls under the category of recreational, cultural, and sporting services, with a total procurement budget of £400,000 and a minimum value of £60,000. The tender period is open until 3rd September 2018, and the contract is expected to commence on 1st November 2018, lasting for one year. Interested suppliers can contact the Amenities Manager, Christine Allison, via email or telephone for further details and to arrange site visits.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for construction and landscaping businesses, particularly those specialising in playground installations and maintenance. Companies that demonstrate expertise in laying wet pour surfaces, providing sustainable options, or fulfilling legislative requirements for safe play areas will be well-placed to compete. The project may also favour businesses with capabilities in eco-friendly materials or advanced technologies in play area installations, making it an attractive prospect for those looking to expand their service offerings in the local government sector.

## Notice

For the eight sites for which it has responsibility, St Ives Town Council would be interested in receiving quotes as follows: To take up and remove the existing wet pour, making good the sub-base and relaying new wet pour. Where needed, to supply and fit new concrete edging to replace the existing timber edging. Any litter bins are to be lifted, not set in the wet pour. The current wet pour is 40mm, but we need to ensure compliance with legislation e.g. CFH. Please therefore provide quotes for 40mm and 60mm. Advice on this is welcomed. The wet pour can be black or green, whichever is the cheaper. Please provide a separate quote for each site: Russet Close: 8 x 9m Burleigh Hill: 32 x 18m Wheatfield: 15 x 13m and 15 x 6m Thorndown: 27 x 16m Beech Drive: 12 x 20m The Crescent: 11 x 9m Slepe Hall: 15 x 28m Warners Park: 10 x 30m To arrange a site visit accompanied by a member of our grounds team, please e-mail amenities@stivestowncouncil.gov.uk tel:01480 388928. We would also welcome notification of any locations in our vicinity where you have laid wet pour that we can visit, ideally where it is around three years to gauge wear. Finally, we are aware that technology is continually advancing, so would also welcome any additional quote you can provide for anything that may be more ecologically sound or improved. Please submit tenders by e-mail and hard copy, marked 'wet pour tender' for the attention of Christine Allison, Amenities Manager, St Ives Town Hall, Market Hill, The Old Riverport, St Ives, Cambs PE27 5AL.
