Highways Planned Works Framework

Award outcome

Description

Liverpool City Council (the "Council") wishes to appoint multiple suppliers to a framework to deliver highways planned works (the "Highways Planned Works Framework"). This Framework will comprise two lots: Lot 1 for works up to a value of £1.5m and Lot 2 for works with a value greater than £1.5m. \r This process commenced with a pre-market engagement exercise notified to the market by PIN ref: 2024/S 000-012838 on 19 April 2024. A pre-market engagement event was held on 5 June.\r This notice marked the commencement of the procurement to appoint contractors to the Highways Planned Works Framework. The selection stage comprises the Common Assessment Standard ("CAS") question set together with bespoke questions tailored to the nature of each Lot. Those candidates who have valid CAS accreditation through a recognised assessment body will only be required to answer certain questions which will be clearly identified in the Selection Questionnaire documentation.\r The Council's vision for the future of travel in Liverpool is one where people default to walking or cycling for their journeys and choose to avoid using cars. As such, and in the context of this Highways Planned Works Framework, the Council intends to focus on:\r 1. delivering green bus routes;\r 2. creating a network of traffic-free green active travel corridors;\r 3. developing travel plans for schools and larger businesses; and\r 4. expanding the network of electric vehicle charging points.\r While Candidates are welcome to bid for both Lot 1 and Lot 2 of the Framework, the current intention is that the same organisation will not be able to win a place on both Lots. As such, the Council's intention would be to evaluate and award places on Lot 2 first before commencing evaluation and award for Lot 1. Consequently, and in such circumstances, if a Bidder participating in the procurement for both Lots is awarded a place on Lot 2, its involvement in the procurement for Lot 1 would automatically be deemed to have come to an end at that point (and therefore its tender would not be evaluated for Lot 1). \r
