Pier Transport System, Southend Pier, Southend-on-Sea - Options Appraisal, Feasibility and Preferred Options Report

Southend-on-Sea Borough Council wishes to procure a suitably qualified and experienced consultant to undertake a detailed options identification and analysis (culminating in the production of an agreed Preferred Option Brief) in respect to its plans to provide a new transport system on Southend Pier. It is intended that the commission will enable the selection of a preferred option and then the approved Brief will be used as the main specification document for the appointment of main contractor.

The tenders will be considered against an evaluation ratio of 40% for price and 60% for quality. We anticipate the tenders will be sent out on 16th March 2016 with a return date of 20th April 2016.

The proposed commencement date of this project is 25th April 2016 and we anticipate a 15 week programme of works.
