II.2.4) Description of the procurement
This notice marks the commencement of a pre-market engagement exercise with potential suppliers with expertise in successfully delivering similar works projects and to obtain feedback on the Council’s proposed approach to procuring its Highways Planned Works Framework.
The current expectation is that the formal procurement process will commence in or around July 2024. The Council has prepared a PME Document (which can be secured by sending an email to hpwfenquiries@liverpool.gov.uk). The PME Document provides greater detail on the proposed scope and the intended procurement process to put in place this Framework.
The LCC Council Plan, 2023 – 27 sets out the Authority’s vision to make Liverpool fairer, cleaner and stronger. This Framework is key to that vision and therefore represents an important opportunity to deliver significant social value, underpinned by Council Plan commitments. It is anticipated that the Framework will include both general civil engineering works and highway new works as follows.
Within general civil engineering works, the Authority’s scope is currently anticipated to cover:
· highway and junction improvements;
· Traffic signal installation and improvements;
· drainage works;
· Structural improvements and remedial works; and
· Major re-surfacing and surface treatment works.
The scope of the Framework is also anticipated to include highway new works such as:
· Public transport infrastructure and provision;
· Active travel schemes;
· Public realm;
· highways structures improvements; and
· Highways and junction re-alignments and reconfiguration works.
The current intention is that the Framework will be divided into two lots as follows:
• Projects with a value of up to £1.5m; and
• Projects with a value greater than £1.5m.
The Authority currently intends to appoint up to 4 suppliers onto each lot and, at present, it is not anticipated that suppliers will be prevented from seeking to secure appointment to both lots but this matter will be considered further as part of this market engagement process.
Annex 1 of the PME Document contains a number of questions on the proposed approach and structure of the Framework and prospective suppliers are asked to provide responses by no later than 14 May 2024, should they have views to share on those matters.
Annex 2 of the PME Document contains an indicative list of capital schemes which are currently planned to commence in 2025/26.
At this stage, it is anticipated that call-off contracts will be based on the NEC4 Engineering and Construction Contract (ECC).
The Pre-market Engagement Information Document details the activities that will take place during the Pre-market Engagement exercise and which will consist of the following:
· Responses to a number of questions about the proposed structure and approach to the Framework (14 May 2024);
· supplier market engagement day on 5th June 2024, 9.30am – 12pm. The event will be held at Liverpool Town Hall (Small Ballroom).
· Potential for one-to-one meetings with some or all of the respondents to the questions in the PME Document.
The Pre-market Engagement exercise is intended to provide a platform for potential suppliers to comment and feed into the Council’s procurement processes. This early engagement is aimed at ensuring a process that best enables suppliers to provide solutions that meet the Council’s requirements and objectives for this important Framework.
Please register your interest in attending the supplier market engagement day by emailing hpwfenquiries@liverpool.gov.uk. Please note that space is limited and therefore the Authority reserves its right to limit the number of attendees from each organisation.
