This open procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with submissions due by 6th November 2017. The works include significant repair and reinforcement of the retaining wall, which has been assessed to be bulging and cracked, necessitating urgent attention before the contract period starts on 10th February 2018 and concludes on 24th June 2018. This tender presents a prime opportunity for construction firms specialised in civil engineering and similar works to expand their portfolio within the public sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, bringing expertise in structural repairs and construction-related services. Companies engaged in general construction, underpinning, masonry or concrete works would find themselves well-equipped to respond to this tender and seize potential growth opportunities in the region. ## Notice Alexander Street Retaining Wall is a gravity stone retaining wall structure with a solid brick parapet. It is approximately 2.2m high from the footway and the parapet is approx. 1.2m high. The structure forms the southern boundary of house Nos. 17 - 43 Alexander Street, It is a private wall, jointly owned by owners of the these properties. The retaining wall is approximately 2.2 metres high from lower ground level (this figure varies slightly along the wall's length) and the parapet wall is a further 1.2 metres high. Following General inspection by Wigan Council and found to be bulging and contained various structural cracks along its length, a principal inspection was carried out in April 2016 by an independent Consultant, confirming that the wall did need some works to make safe. These works will involve underpinning the existing wall working in short lengths and casting an insitu reinforced concrete wall, adjacent to the existing wall, rebuilding the missing 20 metres of brickwork parapet and repointing the existing parapet along the whole length. Additional information: These works will involve underpinning the existing wall working in short lengths and casting an insitu reinforced concrete wall, adjacent to the existing wall, rebuilding the missing 20 metres of brickwork parapet and repointing the existing parapet along the whole length. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/35c7350a-fac7-469b-88c8-e9ec9be75513 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 11 Oct 2017 | | Submission deadline | 6 Nov 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 10 Feb 2018 - 24 Jun 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | 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 | WIGAN COUNCIL | | Locality | WIGAN | | Post town | Wigan | | Postcode | WN1 3DS | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD3 Greater Manchester | | ITL 3 | TLD36 Greater Manchester North West | | Local authority | Wigan | | Electoral ward | Wigan Central | | Westminster constituency | Wigan | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ### Codes - 45200000 - Works for complete or part construction and civil engineering work - 71500000 - Construction-related services ## Release History - 11 Oct 2017 at 16:06 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/35c7350a-fac7-469b-88c8-e9ec9be75513 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/35c7350a-fac7-469b-88c8-e9ec9be75513 11th October 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.wigan.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
