Panel of Providers for Minor Construction Services

⁠⁠⁠Tweed Shire Council is seeking to engage the services of one or more appropriately experienced and Licensed Contractors under a Preferred Supplier Arrangement to provide various minor Construction Services, based on a suitability, availability and economic advantage to Council, for a period of two years, with a possible 1 year extension.

Bidders are advised that submissions will be assessed by the Tender Schedules submitted by the Bidder which will provide Council with a ranked preferred suppliers list (top 3 ranked for each Item) offering the best competency and economical advantage, for various aspects of works as required. In addition Tendered prices must be within 20% of the number one (1) ranked Tender for each Item to earn a place on the Panel for that Item.

Council will from time to time request various aspects of work from the most suitably assessed Contractor for that aspect of work in the first instance. If by reason of unavailability or inability to meet Councils time frame, Council will then approach the next suitably assessed Contractor and so on until all requirements are achieved.

It is Council's expectation that when these services are required the most suitably assessed Contractor will provide a total quote for each job that will include the standardised components and their offered rates from this Contract and any other Items required to complete the works.

The limit applicable to this Preferred Supplier Contract is $10,000 (GST Inclusive). In the event the value of the total quote exceeds $10,000 (GST Inclusive) then Council officers are obliged to seek three (3) quotes from the most suitably assessed Contractors from the preferred supplier list to provide a quotation of cost and availability for the work.

Council gives no Guarantee to any amount of works under this Contract. Work will be requested on a needs basis by the various Council Divisions.

Full details of the work requirements are included in the Specification section of this document.
