  • North Ayrshire Council (NAC) is responsible for the ongoing management and maintenance of a range of Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SuDS) assets located across the region. These assets include above-ground drainage features such as permeable paving, ponds, wetlands, detention basins, filter drains and associated infrastructure. SuDS play a critical role in managing surface water runoff, reducing flood risk, improving water quality and supporting biodiversity. While certain drainage infrastructure is adopted and maintained by Scottish Water, NAC retains responsibility for maintaining a number of SuDS assets that do not form part of the public drainage network. Following a review of the contract requirements, NAC is seeking to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced Contractor to provide inspection, maintenance and repair services for selected SuDS assets located throughout North Ayrshire. The revised procurement reflects an updated site list and current anticipated maintenance requirements. The Contract will operate as a Measured Term Contract (MTC) on a call-off basis. Works will be instructed by NAC in accordance with operational requirements, site conditions and available budgets throughout the Contract period. The Contract will be awarded under the SBCC Measured Term Contract for use in Scotland 2019 Edition (MTC/Scot), as supplemented by the Preliminaries and other Contract Documents issued as part of this procurement. The initial Contract Period will be three (3) years with the option, at NAC's sole discretion and subject to satisfactory performance and funding, to extend the Contract by up to a further one (1) year.Value not stated
