This pre-market engagement is designed to gather feedback from suppliers on the feasibility and scope of the project. The Council is particularly interested in the design and sustainability aspects of the shelters. Opportunities for participating in pre-market engagement will be available throughout January 2025. This project falls under the "Repair and maintenance services" industry category, and it encompasses all bus shelters within Crawley Borough, UKJ28 region. This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in maintenance, construction, and advertising services. It provides a long-term contract lasting a minimum of 10 years with an extension option of 5 years. Businesses involved in construction and maintenance of bus stops and shelters, as well as those offering advertising services, would find this contract particularly lucrative, given the exclusive advertising rights granted in exchange for maintaining the shelters. Companies with a focus on sustainability and innovative design will have an advantage in meeting the project's requirements. ### Lot Information Lot 1 This is a call for soft pre-market engagement with suppliers who may potentially be interested in an upcoming contract. Crawley Borough Council shall require a new Bus Shelter concession contract in mid 2026 that covers all bus shelters in the Crawley Borough and any new ones that are setup. The requirements of this contract are divided into two parts: critical services (the majority of the contract) and some works. The required services include the maintenance, repair and ongoing general upkeep of the bus shelter sites, cleaning of bus shelter sites, upkeep of advertisement material and management of electricity and any internet connection requirements and fees (to be paid by the contractor). The required works involve the construction and installation of any new shelters required during the lifetime of the contract, along with the removal of any bus shelters no longer required. Any new shelters will require the services as mentioned above. It is anticipated any works will be subject to sustainability requirements. There is an expectation that the design of the shelters will be to one or two standard designs however certain shelters will require an enhanced design (due to for example specific location factors or required shelter size i.e. train stations). In exchange for carrying out the required services and works, the appointed contractor will have an exclusive right to advertise on the bus shelters (subject to certain limitations) and generate revenue. Any new contract will last for a minimum of 10 years with the option to extend for a further 5 years. The Council invites suppliers, who may be potentially interested in this future contract, to contact the Council and help advise on what to consider for this contract's specification. The Council welcomes receiving call requests now to book times for pre-market engagement in January 2025. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/038700-2024 | | Notice type | Planning Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | 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 | 2 Dec 2024 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | 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 | Planned | | Lots status | Planned | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CRAWLEY BOROUGH COUNCIL | | Locality | CRAWLEY | | Post town | Redhill | | Postcode | RH10 1UZ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ2 Surrey, East and West Sussex | | ITL 3 | TLJ28 West Sussex (North East) | | Local authority | Crawley | | Electoral ward | Three Bridges | | Westminster constituency | Crawley | | Delivery location | TLJ28 West Sussex (North East) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work - 50 - Repair and maintenance services - 63 - Supporting and auxiliary transport services; travel agencies services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 45213315 - Bus-stop shelter construction work - 50000000 - Repair and maintenance services - 63712100 - Bus station services - 79341000 - Advertising services ## Release History - 2 Dec 2024 at 09:42 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/038700-2024 ## Notice URLs - https://crawley.gov.uk/ - https://in-tendhost.co.uk/sesharedservices/aspx/Home ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
