The proposed new Highways Services Contract comprises three Lots, with an overarching NEC4 Framework Contract. The three Lots proposed under the Framework are:
1. Medium Value Works and Improvements (Lot 1) – Such schemes by their nature are varied in type, volume, and timing. BHCC are seeking 3 suppliers with the ability to direct award contracts worth under 125,000 and award through mini competition for contracts valued in excess of that sum. 2. Highways Safety Maintenance, Operations and Small Works (Lot 2) – Day-to-day Highway Safety Maintenance and Operations to ensure BHCC comply with its statutory duty to maintain the highway and repair defects within short turn-around times. In addition to assist in balancing monthly workload this lot will include small value pavement improvement schemes under 125,000. 3. Lining Works for Parking Enforcement (Lot 3) – Parking revenue is extremely significant for BHCC and well maintained and statutorily compliant road lining is crucial in supporting BHCC’s parking enforcement activities and sustaining the parking income stream. A single supplier is needed to support maintenance of lawful use of Brighton and Hove’s highway infrastructure and support this revenue stream.
