Abstract

Mid Sussex District Council is seeking a Partner with the relevant experience capability and resources to deliver public realm services contract, including grounds maintenance, minor works and civils, drainage, closed cemeteries, playground inspections and maintenance, arboriculture, countryside management, professional services and other related services; over at least a 10year term valued around £50m. The parks and countryside estate is spread across the District’s towns and villages. These range from parks, recreation grounds, ornamental shrub beds, amenity greenspace. The district has over 740 hectares of parks and open spaces, including over 400 green spaces, 70,000 trees, and 5 local nature reserves. The Council also manages over 3,000 public space assets, including 130 play parks, 109 watercourse trash screens, 20 pavilions and 7 public toilets, 34 car parks (and EV charging points), and 258 streetlights. The Council will also work with the Supplier over the course of the contract to incorporate a number of optional services including street cleansing, customer services, enforcement and design and management services under a professional services element. These services will support the Council’s wider ambitions and strengthen its delivery capability in response to its success in securing grant funding investment for a variety of different projects. Whilst the Council’s asset portfolio will be detailed in the procurement documents, the Council’s estate will be subject to ongoing change, and Bidders should be aware that the open spaces and managed land and assets may vary during the Contract period. Similarly, the range of services may be reduced or extended in the future should the Council consider this appropriate. The Council is seeking a supplier who is able to fully deliver the requirements of the contract and work collaboratively with the Council to deliver innovative, sustainable and commercial solutions; demonstrate value for money though efficient service delivery and, proactively implement sustainable improvements over the life of the contract. The Council is keen to encourage local supply chain engagement and delivery throughout the life of the contract. This contract will be administered and primarily used by Mid Sussex District Council, but is being tendered to allow other public bodies which the Council works in partnership with to access the agreement, including West Sussex County Council, and town and parish Councils located within the Mid Sussex District. The Council is procuring this Contract following the Competitive Procedure with Negotiation under the UK Public Contract Regulations 2015 and the Council’s Procurement Code. The Council will be awarding one Contract for the provision of all services detailed in the Specification.
