## Summary

The procurement process involves Warwickshire County Council, who is procuring services for the title "WCC - Street Lighting Column Structural Testing." This project falls within the industry category of street-lighting maintenance services and is located in the West Midlands, United Kingdom. The tender is currently in the active stage and has a deadline for submissions set for 29th March 2019. The contract is expected to commence on 1st April 2019, lasting for an initial term of four years, with the potential for a 24-month extension based on performance. The procurement method is an open procedure, indicating that it is above the community threshold.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in the services related to street-lighting maintenance and structural testing. Companies that specialise in inspection and certification of street lighting infrastructure would be particularly well-suited to compete in this process. Given the collaborative nature of the tender, with multiple councils participating, successful suppliers could secure contracts across various councils, potentially expanding their business reach and establishing long-term partnerships with local authorities.

## Notice

The initial contract term is 4 years from 1st April 2019 to 31st March 2023. However, the Council reserves the right to extend the contract by further periods to a maximum of 24 months. Any extension will be offered at the discretion of the Council based on the contract performance of the successful applicant. The successful supplier will undertake a programme of structurally testing and inspecting the Council's Street Lighting Columns from a programme provided by the Council each year. The successful supplier must structurally test the columns using the "Loss of Section" method outlined in the Institution of Lighting Engineers Technical Report 22 Managing a Vital Asset: Lighting Supports 2007 as updated from time to time and either certify the columns as being structurally safe for a further stated period of time, or recommend that the column is removed immediately or when practicable. The testing method must not require removal of the column door. Warwickshire County Council is acting as the lead authority for a collaborative tendering process on behalf of the Councils listed below. A successful tender exercise will result in separate contracts being entered into by each participating Council. Participating Councils are: * Warwickshire County Council (WCC) (for OJEU Purposes this is Lot 1) * Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council (DMBC) (for OJEU Purposes this is Lot 2) * Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council (SMBC) (for OJEU Purposes this is Lot 3) The administration of each of the above Contracts, including the awarding of the final Contract and payment to the successful supplier for Services carried out in accordance with the applicable Contract, will be carried out independently by, and will be the responsibility of, the applicable Council procuring the Services in question. This arrangement will remain the same whether one, two or three Contracts are awarded to the same supplier.
