## Summary

The procurement process involves Lancashire County Council, seeking bids for the supply of plants, compost, fertiliser, shelters, and stakes for the Penwortham By-Pass Project in Preston. The tender is currently in the Award stage, with the contract period set to commence on 1st October 2019 and conclude by 31st March 2020. This is an open procurement method, allowing multiple suppliers to submit tenders for various lots, including urgently needed items such as trees and compost with a maximum lead time of six weeks. The tender period ended on 27th August 2019.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses in the agricultural and horticultural sectors, particularly those capable of supplying landscaping materials. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to compete, especially those specialising in trees, shrubs, and related products, as the authority anticipates entering into multiple contracts across the different lots. Companies with expertise in timely supply and delivery will be particularly advantageous in fulfilling the requirements of this contract.

## Notice

The plants, compost, fertiliser, and stakes & shelters is required for landscaping purposes along the new Penwortham By-Pass, Golden Way to the A59 Liverpool Road, Penwortham. The supplies will be delivered to the Highways Service, who will then commence planting during October 2019 through to March 2020. The Authority proposes to enter into up to five contracts for these supplies. This is one contract per Lot. The structure of the Lots is as follows: Lot 1 - Cell grown and rootballed trees and shrubs Lot 2 - Potted shrubs and ornamentals Lot 3 - Compost Lot 4 - Fertiliser Lot 5 - Stakes and shelters The supplies under Lots 1, 3, 4 and 5 are required more urgently than Lot 2, hence a maximum lead time of 6 weeks will be stipulated for the aforementioned Lots. Lot 2 will have a maximum lead time of 12 weeks. Tenderers who pass the first stage of evaluation (bid compliance, company information, mandatory and discretionary exclusion criteria, etc.) will then be assessed according to price (further details are provided in ITT Appendix 2). Tenderers may submit tenders for as many Lots that they can supply, although they must be able to supply all of the items within any Lot that they tender for. The delivery address for the goods is: Penwortham By Pass Compound, Broad Oak Lane Roundabout, Penwortham, Preston, PR1 0UQ
