External Works & Paving

The Contract has been awarded for the repair, renewal and construction of paths, paving, car parks, roads, drainage, fencing and associated works as described in the Particular Specification at each of the University Campuses. Separate Purchase Orders will be issued for each individual job. In order to allow this contract to be used for potential European Union funded projects we are notifying all tenderers that some works might be subject to part funding by the European Structural and Investment Funds Growth Programme for England (2014-2020) or any other European Union Funded Programme. The opportunity will also be available for use by other Public Bodies in Wolverhampton and Partner Authorities in the West Midlands Combined Authority.

This requirement is not split into Lots. The need to coordinate the different contractors for the lots could seriously risk undermining the proper execution of the contract.

The Contract Period shall commence on 1 October 2017 and shall end on 30 September 2020, with an option to extend for up to two further 12-month periods at the sole discretion of the Employer and subject to satisfactory performance by the Contractor and prior written confirmation by the Employer. The maximum Contract duration is therefore five (5) years.
