The contract terms will be as contained with a standard JCT Design and Build contract. The trail route crosses land owned by 2 private owners. All the land is currently either amenity woodland or agricultural grazing. Local businesses and other contractors will be operating in this area during the contract works and contactors must be mindful of this. A route map is provided (Annex 5) to help orientate the reader by outlining each of the trail sections, access and egress points for construction traffic, compound locations and signage and furniture locations. Included within the tender pack is a bill of quantities template (Annex 12) and employers requirements document (Annex 11) outlining our base requirements in terms of design standards and materials. The contractor must also make allowances for delivering the project whilst maintaining appropriate Health and Safety standards as outlined in the employers requirements document. For clarification, the tender submission does not require the contractor to submit H & S documentation, but an allowance must be made within the tender sum to provide the appropriate information should the contractor be successful. A weighted evaluation will be made on tender returns, based 60% on cost and 20% on quality of the proposed solution and 20% on contractor's skills and experience. The contractor will be expected to submit a fixed fee proposal and have the capacity to deliver the contract by 23rd June 2023. An accompanied site visit is essential to fully appreciate the opportunity. Appointments are available on 16th February 2023 and can be arranged through Sharon.hodgson@lakedistrict.gov.uk telephone on 07929119389 ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8f45f0f3-963e-4593-8f88-9c41c92d155d | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Direct | | Procurement method details | Single tender action (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 Feb 2023 | | Submission deadline | 10 Mar 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 23 Apr 2023 -
