Description

The plants, compost, fertiliser, and stakes & shelters is required for landscaping purposes along the new Penwortham By-Pass, Golden Way to the A59 Liverpool Road, Penwortham. The supplies will be delivered to the Highways Service, who will then commence planting during October 2019 through to March 2020.

The Authority proposes to enter into up to five contracts for these supplies. This is one contract per Lot. The structure of the Lots is as follows:

Lot 1 - Cell grown and rootballed trees and shrubs
Lot 2 - Potted shrubs and ornamentals
Lot 3 - Compost
Lot 4 - Fertiliser
Lot 5 - Stakes and shelters

The supplies under Lots 1, 3, 4 and 5 are required more urgently than Lot 2, hence a maximum lead time of 6 weeks will be stipulated for the aforementioned Lots. Lot 2 will have a maximum lead time of 12 weeks.

Tenderers who pass the first stage of evaluation (bid compliance, company information, mandatory and discretionary exclusion criteria, etc.) will then be assessed according to price (further details are provided in ITT Appendix 2).

Tenderers may submit tenders for as many Lots that they can supply, although they must be able to supply all of the items within any Lot that they tender for.

The delivery address for the goods is:

Penwortham By Pass Compound, Broad Oak Lane Roundabout, Penwortham, Preston, PR1 0UQ
