This procurement, categorised under construction work, is for services related to seasonal paddling pools located in Skegness, Mablethorpe, and Sutton on Sea. The tender was published on 16th April 2021, with a submission deadline of 7th May 2021. The contract is intended to commence on 24th May 2021 and will run until 31st March 2023, with a total estimated value of £120,000. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, allowing for a wide range of bidders to apply. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses focused on outdoor recreational services, particularly those experienced in managing seasonal facilities and offering maintenance services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-suited to compete, given the nature of the work involved, which includes operational management, maintenance, and customer service at high-traffic coastal sites. This project not only allows companies to showcase their capabilities but also to benefit from the increased footfall in these popular summer destinations. ## Notice Tenders are invited for the supply of Paddling Pool operational services in respect of the seasonal Council owned paddling pools located at Skegness, Mablethorpe and Sutton on Sea as identified herein. This procedure is being conducted in accordance with the Council's Contract and Procurement Procedure Rules utilising the Invitation to Tender Procedure. The successful bidder will be responsible for providing the required services, liaising closely with the Customer's Contract Manager. The Paddling Pools are seasonally open to the public from Spring Bank Holiday at the end of May through to the end of September. However, there is a requirement to commission prior to operation and decommission at the end of the season, i.e. initial filling, drain down, cleaning, minor maintenance etc. The paddling pools are located at the three major coastal resorts with East Lindsey and consequently experience a significant increase in footfall during summer months. Their official opening hours to the public during the season are from 09:00hrs - 17:00hrs seven days per week Mon- Sun. The locations of the paddling pool sites are listed below: * Skegness - Fairy Dell Paddling Pool; * Mablethorpe - Queens Park Paddling Pool; * Sutton on Sea - Maple Leaf Paddling Pool. The Contract will be let for a period of 2 years intended to commence on 24th May 2021. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/474ec949-7016-4449-b4c3-d65fc0b337aa | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 16 Apr 2021 | | Submission deadline | 7 May 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 23 May 2021 - 31 Mar 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £120,000 | | 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 | EAST LINDSEY DISTRICT COUNCIL | | Locality | LOUTH | | Post town | Lincoln | | Postcode | LN11 8UP | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF3 Lincolnshire | | ITL 3 | TLF30 Lincolnshire CC | | Local authority | East Lindsey | | Electoral ward | Grimoldby | | Westminster constituency | Louth and Horncastle | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work ## Release History - 16 Apr 2021 at 13:41 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/474ec949-7016-4449-b4c3-d65fc0b337aa ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/474ec949-7016-4449-b4c3-d65fc0b337aa 16th April 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.e-lindsey.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
