## Summary

Lancashire County Council is currently managing the procurement process for the "Multi Utility Provision for Cuerden Strategic Site" in South Ribble, Lancashire, which falls under the public utilities industry category. This open tender, with a total estimated value of £5,000,000, is aimed at providing essential gas, water, electricity, and telecommunication infrastructure for the site. The tender period is set to conclude on 19 June 2018, and while contract work is set to start on 25 July 2018 and run until 16 August 2019, there may be adjustments to these dates due to ongoing discussions about the planned development of the site.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of providing utility services and infrastructure development. Businesses specialising in utility supply and installation will find this contract especially suited to their capabilities. Competitors should prepare to meet the Council's requirements and timelines while demonstrating their experience and compliance with industry standards.

## Notice

The works are described as the Multi Utility Provision for the Cuerden Strategic Site in South Ribble, Lancashire. This package of works is concerned with the supply of permanent gas, water, electric and telecommunication infrastructure to site. Additional information: As you may be aware, Ikea, the intended anchor tenant for the Cuerden retail development, has advised that it wishes to withdraw its plans to open a store on the site. Whilst the Council remains focussed on the site development it is considered appropriate to pause certain works / tender exercises whilst discussions take place. On this basis we are pausing this tender exercise for a short period but will confirm our position at the very earliest opportunity. Please be assured that should this exercise continue we will, of course, extend the deadline for tender submissions as appropriate. Please note that the contract start and end dates are likely to change.
