In plain English

Enfield Council wants to appoint a contractor for hard and soft landscaping work across its parks, open spaces and roads, including paths, car parks, drainage, play equipment, fencing, planting and flood alleviation. The contract covers capital, revenue and grant-funded projects over three years, with a possible extension of up to 36 months, and there is no guaranteed minimum spend.

What the buyer wants

• Provide all management, supervision, labour, plant, equipment and materials needed to deliver the works safely and to project requirements • Carry out a range of works, including park and footpath reconstruction, drainage improvements, play equipment maintenance, fencing and gates, wetland and rain garden construction, site investigations, and supply and installation of planters, planting, turfing and topsoil • Work under the ICC Term Version August 2011 (updated May 2015) form of contract with Enfield's special conditions, on a schedule of rates basis, including satellite sites outside the borough

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The notice does not set out specific financial, insurance or experience thresholds, and it states that the aim is to create opportunities for local SMEs, but the £20 million estimated value, the requirement to supply all plant, labour and management, and the multi-year schedule of rates may make it difficult for very small firms to take on the work without a sizeable team and equipment.

Always check the tender documents.

How to bid

This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
