Disgrifiad o'r nwyddau neu'r gwasanaethau sydd eu hangen

Powys County Council is seeking quotes to produce a Countryside Volunteer handbook. The aim of the handbook is to support our volunteer groups and communities to work with the Countryside Access and Recreation team, to maintain public rights of way and greenspace.

The contract is being procured to follow an agile project management approach. The broad criteria that the handbook must, should and could meet (i.e. high-level requirements) have been defined through discussion with stakeholders. The budget and timescale are fixed, so quotes are requested to demonstrate how value for money can be delivered within this.

The deadline for completion of the work is 14th March 2025; the budget is £12,000. These are fixed by grant requirements so cannot be extended or amended.

Powys countryside volunteers are trained, inducted and insured by Powys County Council. Some work tasks are supervised by Council officers. Increasingly through, groups are being enabled to work independently of officers, around an agreed work programme with the relevant training and health and safety arrangements in place.

Volunteer tasks range from practical work such as vegetation clearance and installation of pedestrian gates to a co-ordination role, supervising and organising volunteer work parties and liaising with the Community Council and landowners to agree work programmes.

Certain tasks must be carried out by the County Council for legal, health and safety, procurement and funding governance reasons.

The handbook is intended as a reference of key points around tasks that volunteers can complete. It is also a guide to those that need to be referred back to Council officers. It needs to be in an easy-to-read format, with illustrations where appropriate and helpful.

Safonau gofynnol a'r cymhwyster sydd ei angen

Illustrative CAD drawings have already been prepared for key practical tasks e.g. gate installation so the successful contractor is not expected to provide these.

The handbook will need to be in a digital format, provided to the Council in a form that can be edited if changes occur in future and added to, given the agile nature of the work.

A nominated person in the Countryside Access and Recreation team will be available to engage with the contractor throughout the delivery period.

It is anticipated that all work can be completed remotely with virtual meetings, so travel should not be required.

Delivery in Welsh is not required - the Council will arrange translation of the document, but it must be provided by the contractor in a format that will allow for Welsh text to be entered.
