In plain English

Herefordshire Council wants a contractor to refurbish part of The Ryefields Centre in Ross-on-Wye, replacing roofs and windows, fixing damp, and adapting space for a new school for pupils with additional educational needs. The building will stay partly in use during the work, so the contractor must keep users safe and minimise disruption. The contract is estimated at £1,500,000.

What the buyer wants

• Replace the existing pitched and flat roof systems and external windows, and carry out damp remediation and related building fabric repairs. • Refurbish and adapt part of the existing building to create facilities for an additional educational needs school, including the associated mechanical, electrical, fire safety, drainage and building works needed for a fully operational facility. • Complete any contractor-designed elements set out in the tender documents, while managing the work in a partly occupied building with health and safety, safeguarding and site security maintained.

Requirements

Named in the buyer's notice:

What could rule a small business out: The contract value of £1,500,000 and the requirement for a suitably qualified and experienced contractor to deliver the full scope, including contractor-designed elements and works in a partly occupied building, would likely rule out most small businesses.

Always check the tender documents.
