Description

The Council wishes to procure a contract to purchase Horticulture and Amenities chemicals on demand. The chemicals' main usage will be across the Grounds Maintenance, Cemeteries and Healthy Spaces teams, but may be used in other service areas at the Council's discretion.

The contract is intended to ensure an adequate supply of chemicals, backed up by appropriate stock levels so that the Council can place orders and rely on FOC deliveries within 7 calendar days, for receipt at locations across the Borough of Walsall.

The successful bidder will be required to provide FOC servicing and calibration, on an annual/pre-season basis, of the Council's 23 Nomix TDC spray lances, 40 batteries and 26 chargers. Quotations will need to be provided for any subsequent repairs that become necessary, for the Council to approve at its sole discretion. NOTE: where a bidder proposes an alternative product that is not compatible with the Nomix TDC spray lance system, they will be required to provide a price (within the pricing schedule) for suitable spray equipment, of the same quantities as stated in 4.0, and FOC servicing and calibration will then apply to the proposed new spray equipment.
