The project falls under the CPV category of Construction structures and materials. With a contract value of £180,000, the tender involves the design, construction, and commissioning of specialist facilities to support their health and safety research efforts. The procurement method is an open procedure, using electronic and written submission methods, with a tender deadline of December 8, 2022. This tender opportunity with HSE presents a niche market for businesses specializing in construction structures and materials, particularly those with expertise in building specialized facilities for health and safety research. The project offers a chance for firms to contribute to advancing industrial and occupational health and safety research in the UK. Businesses with experience in managing construction projects within regulatory frameworks and compliance standards would be well-suited to compete in this tender process. ## Notice HSE's Science & Research Centre is located within a 550 acre site near Buxton in Derbyshire and is part of HSE's Science Division. HSE works from over 27 locations throughout Great Britain. The Science and Research Centre is Britain's leading industrial & occupational health and safety research facility. Science Division supports HSE's mission to protect the health and safety of the national workforce by ensuring risks in the workplace are adequately controlled. Science Division employs circa 420 people including scientists, engineers, psychologists, social scientists, health professionals and technical specialists. Its capabilities encompass a wide range of topics including: health solutions, risk and human factors, fire, explosion and process safety; occupational and environmental health; safety engineering; work environment; and specialist photographic and technical services. The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) is the lead Department for the UK's product safety framework and is responsible for most product safety legislation in the UK. Civil explosives (CEs) legislation (ER 2014/1638 (as amended) forms part of BEIS's overall safety framework, however Explosives Regulations 2014 (ER2014) is led and owned by HSE in Great Britain (GB) and HSE is also the market surveillance and enforcing authority. As such HSE has responsibility for the designation of standards for civil explosives and the DWP Minister agreed to delegate decisions on standards to Director Level in HSE. To enable HSE to have the capability to meet the above requirements, the Science and Research Centre requires new specialist facilities and upgrades to certain existing buildings, equipment, and other areas. The aim of the project is to confirm the scope of the updates required to the equipment, facilities and test areas on the Buxton site and then to manage the design, construction and commissioning of the same facilities according to CDM and any other regulatory requirements. The Detonator Test Building, to which this opportunity relates, forms one part of this overall strategy, and will be used by the HSE to test the safety of commercially available detonators. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Fabrication and delivery of a detonator test building to be delivered to HSE Buxton ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/031471-2022 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 7 Nov 2022 | | Submission deadline | 8 Dec 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £180,000 | | Lots value | £180,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HEALTH & SAFETY EXECUTIVE | | Locality | BOOTLE | | Post town | Liverpool | | Postcode | L20 7HS | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD7 Merseyside | | ITL 3 | TLD73 Sefton | | Local authority | Sefton | | Electoral ward | Linacre | | Westminster constituency | Bootle | | Delivery location | TLF1 Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 44 - Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) ### Codes - 44000000 - Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) ## Release History - 7 Nov 2022 at 16:14 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/031471-2022 ## Notice URLs - http://www.hse.gov.uk - https://in-tendhost.co.uk/hse ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
