Description

This procurement is for the establishment of a multi-supplier framework for the delivery of planned, cyclical and improvement works and associated services across housing and building assets. The scope covers a broad range of capital works, planned maintenance and compliance-related activities, including fire precaution works and fire systems, window and door replacement programmes, kitchen and bathroom installations, gas and commercial heating installations, roofing works, water mains installations and CCTV surveys, planned improvement works, cyclical decoration programmes, damp and mould remedial works, lift maintenance, energy efficiency works, door entry systems, equipment and adaptations (including DFGs), asbestos removal and surveying, water hygiene testing and remedial works, air conditioning servicing and maintenance, lightning protection, sump pump and pumping station servicing, solid fuel and LPG servicing and maintenance, air source heat pump and photovoltaic servicing, automated gates and access systems, and statutory testing. The framework also includes a range of professional, technical and assurance services, including health and safety consultancy, building surveying services, structural engineering services, mechanical and electrical compliance consultancy, CDM and principal designer services, architectural services, housing-related legal services, and third-party gas and electrical auditing. The framework is structured across forty-four (44) lots, eight (8) of which are optional value-based lots designed to distinguish between contracts below £1.2 million and contracts of £1 million and above, enabling access to appropriately qualified and experienced suppliers and supporting proportionality in supplier selection. Where a workstream is split into value-based lots, suppliers must select and bid for only one of the split lots (for example, Lot 10 or Lot 10a) and will not be permitted to submit bids for both. “Authorised User” means any of the following: i) any entity within the same group of companies as TCHG from time to time (a “TCHG Group Member”); ii) any entity or joint venture company that TCHG or any other TCHG Group Member holds an interest in from time to time (a “TCHG JV”); iii) any Social Housing Provider in the United Kingdom (excluding TCHG, TCHG Group Members and TCHG JVs); iv) any national, regional or local health authority, including NHS Trusts and Primary Care Trusts; v) any educational establishment, including but not limited to primary and secondary schools, further and higher education institutions, academies and free schools; vi) any other “contracting authority” in the UK as defined in the Procurement Act 2023; and vii) any supply chain member of TCHG or of any of the above organisations; and, in the case of the organisations listed in limbs (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii) above, who has entered into an Access Agreement with TCHG.
