In plain English
West Dunbartonshire Council wants a contractor to build a new 1km mountain bike skills track at Balloch Castle Country Park. The track is meant to help riders of all levels develop their skills and support the creation of a local mountain bike club. The estimated contract value is £434,000.
What the buyer wants
• Build a new 1km purpose-built mountain bike skills track at Balloch Castle Country Park, carried out by an experienced trail builder. • Show that you are a competent and experienced mountain bike trail contractor. • Deliver a facility that supports cycling skills development for all riders, to help establish a Mountain Bike Club.
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice requires a competent and experienced mountain bike trail builder, so a small firm without a clear track record of building similar trails is likely to be ruled out, and the £434,000 value may be beyond the reach of very small businesses.
Always check the tender documents.
