This contract, valued at approximately £50 million over its initial term, invites bidders to submit a Selection Questionnaire by the deadline of 14th September 2021. The procurement method is a selective, Restricted procedure, and the contract falls under the construction work industry category, specifically for highway services in London. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in construction and maintenance services, particularly those with innovative approaches to highway management. Companies that excel in partnership models, focusing on service delivery improvements and community benefits, would be particularly well-suited to compete. As the City of London Corporation aims to build on previous successes through a collaborative relationship with the chosen contractor, businesses that can demonstrate effective teamwork and a commitment to high-quality service provision will have a competitive edge. ## Notice The City invites Bidders to submit a Selection Questionnaire for the provision of Highway construction and maintenance contract. The majority of the highways maintenance and construction activities are delivered through the CoL's core term maintenance contract. This contract has been in place since 2012 and is due to expire on the 30th June 2022. While this has been a very successful contract, CoL recognises that there is an opportunity to build upon these successes and take steps to identify and maximise the opportunities available to both the CoL and the appointed supplier. Our ambition is therefore to maintain these high levels of performance, whilst encouraging and supporting innovation. We are very keen to work with a supplier who is innovative in terms of how our core/continuing requirements are realised, in addition to discussing new ideas and ways of maximising the relationship. Our ambition is for this to create an exciting and new way of delivering highways services, whilst continuing to perform at the expected high levels. The duration of the contract is 5 years, subject to the right of the City (at its sole discretion) to exercise its right to extend the Contract by up to 5 further years. The maximum length of the contract is therefore 10 years. The CoL anticipates that the value of the initial term of the contract (5-year period) would be in the region of GBP 50 000 000 (~ PS10 Million a year). However, this is an indicative figure only based on its current 'core' scope of requirements and on the assumption that the contract would be in place for that duration. We are also keen to establish a genuine partnership approach which embodies trust in service delivery, pricing and the innovations referenced above, which would potentially further improve the relationship. We are very keen to understand how we can do things better to facilitate this as the client, including how we involve other parts of our supply chain to achieve success for all. We are also required to explore wider social benefits which can be realised from significant public contracts. The CoL has realised a number of successes in the previous iteration of this contract with our incumbent supplier but hopes to achieve significantly more through this new partnership approach. To do this, our ambitions must be aligned with those of our appointed supplier. This means jointly agreeing how this will work and how this can realistically be achieved without adding excessive cost. The highways team are obliged to comply with the public procurement regime to ensure a sensible and fair procurement process. While we hope that this offers assurance that you should expect us to run a fair and transparent process, our ambition is to also undertake a procurement which is not overly burdensome and facilitates enough interaction with bidders to arrive at the right decision.
