Note
Please read the note below before using this Model Documentation
This model Output Specification, developed for the use on Local Authority street lighting projects, is not intended to be a word-for-word template (i.e., ready for use). The model will need to be refined by each Authority having direct input into selected sections (highlighted by footnotes) and completion of the highlighted appendices.
This model Output Specification is based on Performance Standards that link through to the model Payment Mechanism in this Street Lighting Procurement Pack.
This model Output Specification refers throughout to Method Statements. The Method Statement questions included in the model Invitation to Submit Detailed Solutions (ISDS) should be developed and modified by each Local Authority to reflect the project specific needs of each individual Street Lighting PFI.
It should be noted that it not intended for Method Statements to be incorporated into the Output Specification. They should form part of schedule 5 (Method Statements).
