The procurement stage is currently in the tender phase, with the tender period set to close on 21st February 2018. This project is classified under the services category and involves a contract value of approximately £400,000. The delivery locations are primarily within a 25-mile radius of Central London, although services may occasionally extend beyond this area. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the event services and temporary structures sectors, particularly those capable of rapid response to urgent requirements. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the project supports several smaller bidders. Companies that specialise in the supply and installation of marquees, tents, and related equipment would be well-suited to compete for this contract, leveraging their expertise to align with the Metropolitan Police Service's operational demands. ## Notice Property Services Operational Support Group (OSG) of the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) require a 24/7/365 service year round for the hire, supply and erection of marquees and tents for operations and events. Requirements for large national events with specific venues are sometimes known in advance, but on rare occasions, urgent responses will be requested for the hire and erection of equipment at short notice. Generally, the marquees and/or tents will be required to be positioned in specific locations that are either on MPS property, or on hired rented grounds, for example private playing fields, schools etc. at defined times and usually within an approximate 25 mile radius of Central London and the M25 boundary. The supplier will be given adequate access to allow erection of marquee and ancillary items. However, there may be occasions where marquees are required outside the M25 boundary. Requirements are usually programmed in advance but occasionally due to security or major incidents there may be a requirement to supply at very short notice. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9a81d9c0-fb1c-4351-8f7c-f13e00de80c9 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Jan 2018 | | Submission deadline | 21 Feb 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 22 Feb 2018 - 23 Feb 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £400,000 | | 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 | METROPOLITAN POLICE SERVICE | | Locality | GREATER LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW6 1TR | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI33 Kensington & Chelsea and Hammersmith & Fulham | | Local authority | Hammersmith and Fulham | | Electoral ward | West Kensington | | Westminster constituency | Chelsea and Fulham | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 33 - Medical equipments, pharmaceuticals and personal care products - 39 - Furniture (incl. office furniture), furnishings, domestic appliances (excl. lighting) and cleaning products - 44 - Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) - 45 - Construction work - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 33163000 - Tent for medical use - 39522000 - Tarpaulins, sails for boats, sailboards or land craft, awnings, sunblinds, tents and camping goods - 39522100 - Tarpaulins, awnings and sunblinds - 39522530 - Tents - 39525000 - Miscellaneous manufactured textile articles - 44112200 - Floor coverings - 44112210 - Solid flooring - 44112220 - False floors - 44212000 - Structural products and parts except prefabricated buildings - 45223100 - Assembly of metal structures - 45223110 - Installation of metal structures - 45432100 - Floor laying and covering work - 45432110 - Floor-laying work - 45432111 - Laying work of flexible floor coverings - 45432113 - Parquet flooring - 45432114 - Wood flooring work - 45432120 - False floor installation work - 45432130 - Floor-covering work - 79952000 - Event services - 92330000 - Recreational-area services ## Release History - 23 Jan 2018 at 23:30 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9a81d9c0-fb1c-4351-8f7c-f13e00de80c9 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9a81d9c0-fb1c-4351-8f7c-f13e00de80c9 23rd January 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=22990&B=BLUELIGHT Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/40396 User / Company ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
