This contract falls under the construction work industry category and is located in the East of England, United Kingdom. The contract was awarded on 11 July 2018, following an open procurement method. The total contract value is £120,000, and it is currently in the award stage, having been completed with a contract period running from 30 July 2018 to 31 August 2019. This tender presents opportunities for growth for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) particularly those with expertise in construction and landscaping. Companies specialising in footpath construction, heritage site maintenance, and environmentally-friendly building techniques would find this contract particularly relevant. With the emphasis on improving access to historical sites while maintaining natural aesthetics, this project aligns well with businesses focused on sustainable and quality construction practices. ## Notice The cemetery is an English Heritage Grade II listed site and is also designated a County Wildlife Site. The cemetery's main footpath(s), from the main pedestrian and vehicular entrance off Mill Road, pass through the middle of the cemetery, a number of connecting smaller footpaths navigate the boundary of the cemetery. These footpaths allow access to this important and historic open space which is frequently used by both cyclists and pedestrians. The existing paths have been constructed from an unbound aggregate construction (possibly Carstone) and generally in dry periods the paths are in good condition. Issues arise from the verges either side of the paths being higher than the path surfaces; as the paths are now compacted they are not porous and therefore water pools on the paths, with large puddles in the winter. The purpose of the works will be to improve the continuity and effectiveness of the paths using the existing paths as the foundations. Timber edgings shall be installed to better define the path width; the base will be constructed to re-profile the shape of the path before a new surface layer is put down. The grass verges shall be top soiled and seeded to bring them to the level of the new path. Some of the paths to the east side and through the middle of the cemetery have very little or no construction. To ensure that the paths remain in keeping with the natural and historic environment of the cemetery they shall be constructed using a self-binding aggregate construction, similar in appearance to the existing construction. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/37aa5e11-6a92-4e9d-b9b6-5490ba224512 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 18 Jun 2019 | | Submission deadline | 18 May 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 10 Jul 2018 | | Contract period | 29 Jul 2018 - 31 Aug 2019 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £120,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £120,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CAMBRIDGESHIRE DISTRICT COUNCILS | | Locality | CAMBRIDGE | | Post town | Cambridge | | Postcode | CB2 3QJ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH4 Cambridgeshire and Peterborough | | ITL 3 | TLH42 Cambridgeshire CC | | Local authority | Cambridge | | Electoral ward | Market | | Westminster constituency | Cambridge | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | HUGH PEARL | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work ## Release History - 18 Jun 2019 at 15:09 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/37aa5e11-6a92-4e9d-b9b6-5490ba224512 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/37aa5e11-6a92-4e9d-b9b6-5490ba224512 18th June 2019 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=f17ff280-153f-e811-80eb-005056b64545 Advert ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
