This project falls under the "Repair and maintenance services of building installations" category, specifically focusing on essential refurbishment of a bridge structure that has deteriorated over time. The tender period concludes on 10th August 2018, with contract execution expected to start on 1st November 2018 and continue until 21st December 2018. The estimated contract value ranges from £10,000 to £50,000 and follows an open procedure for procurement. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for construction and maintenance firms, especially those experienced in structural repair and refurbishment projects. Companies specialising in bridge works, corrosion treatment, and general construction services will find this project well-aligned with their capabilities. Engaging in this tender may help businesses expand their portfolio and establish a relationship with a prominent public authority, potentially leading to future projects within the defence and heritage sectors. ## Notice Normal access to the Fleet Air Arm Museum is via a set of stairs that lead to a bridge structure over a road on the Naval Air Station below, those unable to climb the stairs enter through a ground level gate. This staircase and bridge have been in use for many years and are now in need of refurbishment and updating. Some years ago a second set of stairs that used to serve the bridge were removed and this has consequently altered the loading on the stairs and bridge. With this in mind a structural survey (2015 report, appendix 2) of the stairs and bridge had been carried out and recommendations made to repair, make good, the bridge structure. The existing bridge and stairs require maintenance and this should include replacing all fixings, localised steel repairs where appropriate, to remedy any areas of corrosion, encasing the column bases in concrete and the whole structure repainted. Several surface plates and fixings need to be replaced, as do support fixings. (please see appendix 3 - Photo Record BFL Photo Record 15th October 2015 and refer the the pricing proposal - Section 6). The formal document and appendices are available for downland and contain all relevant information to enable suitors to tender a response. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/71ee42d5-10cb-480d-9b03-fc974e689e91 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 3 Aug 2018 | | Submission deadline | 10 Aug 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Nov 2018 - 21 Dec 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £50,000 | | 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 | THE NATIONAL MUSEUM OF THE ROYAL NAVY | | Locality | PORTSMOUTH | | Post town | Portsmouth | | Postcode | PO1 3NH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ3 Hampshire and Isle of Wight | | ITL 3 | TLJ31 Portsmouth | | Local authority | Portsmouth | | Electoral ward | Charles Dickens | | Westminster constituency | Portsmouth South | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 50 - Repair and maintenance services ### Codes - 50700000 - Repair and maintenance services of building installations - 50800000 - Miscellaneous repair and maintenance services ## Release History - 3 Aug 2018 at 14:24 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/71ee42d5-10cb-480d-9b03-fc974e689e91 - 4 Jul 2018 at 12:30 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/71ee42d5-10cb-480d-9b03-fc974e689e91 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/71ee42d5-10cb-480d-9b03-fc974e689e91 3rd August 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/f3b1d48b-6af1-4b5b-bb2e-4e657748f664 Appendix 3 - Bridge Photo Record - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/06efce46-52b6-492a-be3b-b5d88b0687af Appendix 4 Bridge Technical Drawing 1 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/96bfbb51-0b79-4592-b789-336e089ed23b Appendix 5 Bridge Technical Drawing 2 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/81ed812b-38cd-4091-b47a-1d963757c455 Appendix 2 - Current Photo Record 2018 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/e4d1aa6b-1004-475f-94cd-8756c73740fc Tender Document - Main Information - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/c71a2904-ad86-4f6e-a017-12e7da0b7301 Bridge Tender FAQ - 3rd Aug 2018 ## Notice URLs - http://www.fleetairarm.com ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
