This exercise aims to identify external providers that can supply and install new above-ground fuel tanks, replacing existing underground tanks nearing the end of their lifespan. The project is classified under the CPV codes for petroleum products and transport equipment, and it is situated in the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom. The engagement end date for this soft market testing is set for 23rd February 2018. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses involved in fuel supply, tank manufacturing, and construction services to expand their client base. Companies specialising in energy infrastructure, transport equipment, or construction materials would be particularly well-suited to participate in this exercise. The early engagement notice suggests interest in understanding the market capabilities, making it a strategic avenue for firms aiming to forge strong relationships within the public sector. ## Notice Nottingham City Council is to undertake a soft market testing exercise to canvass external providers of fuel tanks to replace an existing underground fuel tank that is approaching the end of its expected life. The existing fuel tanks are located underneath a fuel island - an above-ground tank is preferred therefore decommission of the existing tank will be required. Existing terminals and pumps will remain in use but may need to be relocated depending on pipework and space requirements. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a8e072ee-a786-4ce8-b4d9-dfba77954e42 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 5 Oct 2017 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 23 Feb 2018 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | 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 | Cancelled | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NOTTINGHAM CITY COUNCIL | | Locality | NOTTINGHAM | | Post town | Nottingham | | Postcode | NG2 3NG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF1 Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire | | ITL 3 | TLF14 Nottingham | | Local authority | Nottingham | | Electoral ward | Castle | | Westminster constituency | Nottingham East | | Delivery location | TLF East Midlands (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 09 - Petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy - 34 - Transport equipment and auxiliary products to transportation - 44 - Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) ### Codes - 09000000 - Petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy - 34000000 - Transport equipment and auxiliary products to transportation - 44000000 - Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) ## Release History - 5 Oct 2017 at 07:58 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a8e072ee-a786-4ce8-b4d9-dfba77954e42 - 5 Oct 2017 at 07:57 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/1848ec1b-9170-4cd5-840a-647a96882514 - 28 Feb 2017 at 14:44 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/1848ec1b-9170-4cd5-840a-647a96882514 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a8e072ee-a786-4ce8-b4d9-dfba77954e42 5th October 2017 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/1848ec1b-9170-4cd5-840a-647a96882514 5th October 2017 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=964dca0f-bffd-e611-80dd-005056b64545&p=527b4bbd-5c58-e511-80ef-000c29c9ba21 Link to soft market testing information ## Notice URLs - http://Mabs.karim@nottinghamcity.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
