Description

Budehaven Community School is a provider of Secondary and Sixth Form education for 11-18year olds located in Bude, North Cornwall with 1,174 students on the school role.

The community astro turf in Bude currently has six working halogen floodlights. An upgrade to sixteen LED floodlights will extend the use of the facility and increase energy efficiency. Redesigning the light columns will support easier access to the lights for when they break or need replacing in the future, therefore the install should incorporate a lever system to pull down the lights instead of requiring a crane.

The astro pitches and the flood lights facilities in Bude is a valued and essential asset to the local community. Whilst the astro serves the school during school hours, the addition of the flood lights is for use of the local community as they are not required by the school. Floodlights are required for all community use of the astro pitch from the end of October until Easter to enable local sporting clubs to continue use the sports facility when it is dark.

The purchase of this system is part of a grant funded application process and therefore procurement will be subject to grant approval of the project. We will assess tenders received on lowest compliant Tender.
