From time to time Mareham le Fen Parish Council will ask other businesses and suppliers to provide works, goods or a service.
The Council will specify what is required and in accordance with our Standing Orders will seek contractors to tender for the work.
Invitations to Tender and Requests for Quotes will be published here on the website, council noticeboards, newspapers and other locations that will advertise the opportunity.
Works to the Rectory Bus Stop, Fieldside, Mareham le Fen
When the quotations are considered, they will take into account the price and other business aspects. The cheapest price will not necessarily be awarded the contract. The Parish Council will seek to select the best value for the community. The Parish Council is not bound to award the contract.
If there are any questions not covered in the Request for Quotes or Invitation to Tender document, please contact the Clerk to the Parish Council with details of the clarification required. If relevant to other potential contractors this information may be added to the documentation and/ or relevant webpage.
All quotes must be submitted in a sealed envelope sent to the Parish Clerk’s address with the name of the contract being sought written on the back of the envelope to be received by the deadline. All sealed envelopes will be opened at the same time witnessed by parish councillors shortly after the deadline. Late entries received after the deadline will therefore not be considered.
Contractors and suppliers are reminded that they must not collude with others to affect the market price or to influence the outcome of any award of a contract by seeking to influence any parish councillor or official. This may result in disqualification from the exercise and may be a potential criminal offence under the Bribery Act or other relevant laws.
