Should the tender proposal rectify the building's structural integrity issues, the redesign of the facilities within the building must still be in-keeping with the Council's vision for the facility outlined below.Design Requirements - Architectural Design: The new toilet block must reflect the character and heritage of the Wareham Conservation Area. The design must incorporate traditional materials (e.g., brick, stone, timber) and be sensitive to the heritage of the area, as outlined in the Wareham Neighbourhood Plan.Functional Layout: The facility must be well-planned to offer: • Unisex, self-contained toilet facilities integrated with accessibility features such as wide doorways, grab rails, and accessible cubicles. • A pay-to-use entry system, designed to ensure ease of use for all visitors, including those with disabilities. • Baby changing facilities in all sections. • Durable fixtures and fittings that are vandal-resistant and easy to clean. Pay-to-Use System: A pay-to-use entry mechanism must be installed. This system should: • Be modern and robust allowing contactless payments (e.g., via card or mobile payment). • Be fully accessible for individuals with disabilities.• Include appropriate signage and user instructions.Sustainability and Accessibility: The facility should be energy and water efficient, incorporating low-flush toilets, sensor-activated lighting, and eco-friendly materials where practicable, cost-effective and in keeping with planning requirements. The toilets must comply with UK building regulations, including Part M (Access to and Use of Buildings), and should ideally avoid the need for a separate disabled cubicle by incorporating accessibility into the main male and female sections.Construction Works • Construction of the toilet block in line with approved designs and compliance with all relevant building regulations. • Installation of utilities (water, drainage, electricity), the pay-to-use system, and fixtures. • External landscaping, if required, to integrate the building within its surroundings. • Ensuring the safety of the site throughout construction and minimising disruption to the public. Health and SafetyThe contractor must submit a detailed Health and Safety Plan covering both the demolition and construction phases of the project. This plan must include: • Measures for ensuring worker and public safety on and around the site. • Compliance with the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM Regulations) and provision of a Construction Phase Plan to be approved by the Town Council prior to work commencing on-site. Planning Permission and Building RegulationsThe successful contractor will be responsible for ensuring that all works comply with the planning permissions and building regulations applicable to the project. The design and construction must adhere to: The Wareham Neighbourhood Plan and guidelines for the Wareham Conservation Area. • Relevant sections of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.• UK Building Regulations, particularly Part M (Access to and Use of Buildings) and any additional local conservation requirements. The contractor carries the onus and final responsibility for securing planning and any other required permissions.Sustainability and Accessibility The design and construction of the new public toilets must promote environmental sustainability and full accessibility for all users. In line with best practices, the contractor must: • Utilise eco-friendly materials and construction methods, including the use of recycled materials where feasible and low VOC paints. • Wareham Town Council favours designs and constructions which incorporate or include sustainable energy generation features such as solar panels, photovoltaic equipment, etc. • Incorporate energy-efficient technologies, such as low-flush toilets, sensor activated lighting, and other water- and energy-saving devices.• Ensure compliance with Part M of the Building Regulations, providing wide doorways, grab rails, and accessible cubicles integrated within the male and female facilities. Tactile signage should be installed for visually impaired users.These sustainability and accessibility features should be clearly outlined in the contractor's design proposal and will be a key evaluation criterion. Defects Liability PeriodThe successful contractor will be required to provide a Defects Liability Period of 12 months from the date of practical completion of the works. During this period, the contractor shall be responsible for rectifying any defects or faults arising from the construction at their own cost. RetentionThe retention amount to be held over the Rectification Period will be 2.5% of the contract sum. Subject to the satisfactory remedying of all defects the retention will be released to the contractor at the expiry of the Rectification Period which shall be mutatis mutandis the Due Date for Payment.Defects CorrectionDuring the Defects Liability Period, any defects identified must be corrected by the contractor within a reasonable timeframe, not exceeding 14 days from notification. Persistent failure to correct defects may result in the council seeking remedial action at the contractor's expense.Warranties and GuaranteesThe contractor shall provide a minimum two-year warranty for the pay-to-use entry system and other major installations (e.g., plumbing and electrical systems). Any equipment or systems installed must be backed by a manufacturer's guarantee, ensuring that the Town Council is protected from potential future maintenance issues.II.2.5) Award criteriaPrice is not the only award criterion and all criteria are stated only in the procurement documentsII.2.6) Estimated valueValue excluding VAT: 140 000.00 GBPII.2.7) Duration of the contract, framework agreement or dynamic purchasing system Start: 31/03/2025 End: 30/06/2025 This contract is subject to renewal: No II.2.9) Information about the limits on the number of candidates to be invitedII.2.10) Information about variants Variants will be accepted: Yes II.2.11) Information about options Options: Yes Description of options:Proposed timeline available in tender specification.II.2.13) Information about European Union funds The procurement is related to a project and/or programme financed by European Union funds: No Section IV: ProcedureIV.1) DescriptionIV.1.1) Type of procedure Open procedure IV.1.8) Information about Government Procurement Agreement (GPA) The procurement is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement: No IV.2) Administrative informationIV.2.2) Time limit for receipt of tenders or requests to participate Date: 31/01/2025 Local time: 23:59IV.2.4) Languages in which tenders or requests to participate may be submittedENIV.2.7) Conditions for opening of tenders Date: 05/02/2025 Local time: 10:00Section VI: Complementary informationVI.1) Information about recurrence This is a recurrent procurement: No VI.4) Procedures for reviewVI.4.1) Review bodyWareham Town CouncilTown Hall, East Street, Wareham, DorsetWarehamBH20 4NSUK Telephone: +44 7950940215 E-mail: deputyclerk@wareham-tc.gov.ukVI.5) Date of dispatch of this notice18/10/2024 Coding Commodity categories ID Title Parent category 45000000Construction workConstruction and Real Estate Delivery locations ID Description 100UK - All Alert region restrictions The buyer has restricted the alert for this notice to suppliers based in the following regions.
