CN250568 - Highway Signs & Lines Condition Survey Contract

Kent County Council is seeking responses from the commercial market to help shape our understanding of the condition and asset management principles around our highway (non-illuminated) signs, lines and road stud assets. Recent activities have taken place to explore condition surveys around signs and lines and the Council has accumulated beneficial data around lining condition and signage assets and sign locations. This has been an ad-hoc activity historically, and the Council wish to move to an established long-term contract to survey these assets regularly and acquire data to inform our future maintenance and strategic work programmes around these assets going forward. Requirement and context: The Council shall look to identify a supplier that can carry out the following requirement as part of this new contract: •To provide asset management data on KCC signs, lines and stud assets using a GIS type system. •To provide condition survey data on KCC signs lines and stud assets to inform our understanding of asset condition and to allow KCC to direct the efficient use of resources in their maintenance and prioritisation. •To consider allowing such a system to expand to record the asset management and condition survey data for street furniture (bollards, reflectorised road traffic bollards pedestrian guard rails). •Whilst it would be KCC preference for a provider to provide both an asset management system, a condition survey and a management system under a single contract, we would accept provision of either as part of a contract lot if it achieves our requirements at best value.
