Description

The Council has a directly employed workforce that undertakes highways maintenance works, including:

• carriageway and footway patching
• carriageway and footway ironwork adjustment and/or replacement
• minor construction works
• brick laying

The Council is looking to appoint suitably qualified and experienced bidders to a framework contract. Bidders appointed to the framework contract must be able to supply suitably trained and experienced highway maintenance resources (i.e. - operatives with vehicles and equipment) to supplement the Council's directly employed workforce, on an ad-hoc basis.

From the commencement of the framework contract, the Council anticipates a need for four teams comprising of two highway maintenance operatives paired with a 7.5t drop side lorry, per team. The number of teams may fluctuate up or down depending on the Council's commitments and/or budget.

All teams will work under the direct instruction and supervision of the Council's employees.

The Council may additionally require the ad-hoc provision of other resources, as identified in 'Document 5 - Price List'
