The Council is seeking a Gas SafeTM/ NICEIC Approved Electrical Contractor to act as Principal Contractor with the capability and experience to manage specialist sub-contractors to undertake and execute the contract works. The Council will not consent to the whole of the works to be sub-contracted. It is essential that this project is successfully executed during the summer recess, so the Contractor will need to demonstrate they have recently completed at least one similar project successfully (similar scope of work, similar value and similar timescale) and they have the competency and sufficient resources to meet these deadlines.

The Contractor shall appoint a full-time site-based representative (i.e. site/contract manager) throughout the works on site. It is expected the contractor will have to work longer weekdays and weekends during the school holiday period (24th July to 31st August 2023) to complete the work within the contract programme requirements and include these costs in their tender.
