In plain English

South Oxfordshire District Council wants a contractor to build natural flood management features at Watlington, such as leaky dams, scrapes (shallow wetland depressions) and corner bunds (low earth banks) that slow and hold back water. The estimated value is £53,000 and the notice refers to separate full tender documents for detail.

What the buyer wants

• Clear the site, then build the flood management features, including leaky dams, overland flow management, scrapes and corner bunds • Complete the works and prepare the health and safety file • Carry out defects rectification (fix faults that appear after the work)

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The notice lists no specific qualifications, but it states the contractor is deemed to know all local site conditions and restrictions and refers to the full tender documents for further requirements, so firms that cannot assess the site or meet those documents may be ruled out.

Always check the tender documents.
