- Framework
- An agreement that sets terms for work the buyer may order later, often from several suppliers. The value shown usually covers the whole agreement, not one job.
- Open for bids / closing date
- You must submit by the closing date and time, normally through the buyer's own online portal. Late bids are normally refused.
- Clarification questions
- A deadline for asking the buyer questions about the tender. It is earlier than the closing date.
- Conditions of participation
- What the buyer asks suppliers to show before they can be considered, such as experience, insurance or accreditations.
- Bids are scored on
- How the buyer will compare bids, usually a split between price and quality. A 60/40 split in favour of quality means the cheapest bid will not necessarily win.
- Lots
- A tender can be split into parts. You can often bid for only the lots that suit you.
- Area (ITL)
- The buyer names an official statistical area for where the work is, not a street address. Check the tender documents for the actual sites.
- UK4 and other notice codes
- Official codes for the type of notice. A "tender notice" means bids are being invited.

Description
Mansfield District Council (the Council) require a single supplier to undertake demolition of the former Beales department store located on Stockwell Gate, Mansfield, prior to construction of the new Mansfield Connect building.
The project comprises the demolition, deconstruction, asbestos removal, site clearance and associated making good to the former Beales department store and associated former Co-op structures, including all temporary works, retained-asset protection, environmental controls and completion security works to provide the Council with a secured and cleared building site for future development.
The successful provider will be required to provide all design, surveys, notices, licences, temporary works, management, labour, plant and materials necessary to safely demolish and clear the former Beales department store and associated former Co-op structures in accordance with the Scope.
The Works include soft strip; removal of known and discovered asbestos and hazardous materials; isolation, diversion and termination of services; demolition/deconstruction of superstructures, slabs, foundations and basements to the specified levels; protection of adjoining structures and public areas; removal and lawful disposal/recovery of arisings; backfilling, compaction, grading and drainage; all permanent and temporary making good; and leaving a secure, stable and safely drained site.

Participation is restricted to suppliers that are based or have established substantive business operations within the designated local area, comprising Nottinghamshire and the adjoining counties of Derbys, Lincs, Leics and South Yorks.
