II.1.5)Short description of the contract or purchase(s)
The Authority is seeking expressions of interest from suitably qualified and experienced service providers to enter into a framework arrangement (the "Framework") for the delivery of a programme of Capital Investment works (the "Programme") to its residential housing stock comprising approximately 9760 properties in the contract area, of which approximately 2,500 are leaseholder and the remainder are tenanted. The housing stock is of a variety of ages and construction types and includes multi storey buildings as well as some traditional street properties. The number of properties may increase or decrease over the term of the Programme.
The Programme consists of (i) internal works to tenanted properties (including kitchens, bathrooms, re-wires and other ancillary works), (ii) external works to all properties including roofs, windows, environmental works and similar, and (iii) the opportunity for the Authority to incorporate its "Hidden Homes” initiative which involves the creation of additional new dwellings out of existing assets such as unused space within blocks. The majority of the works in the Programme will be undertaken with the residents in occupation
The Authority intends to enter into Framework Agreements with each of the successful service providers for a period of 48 months, although call offs may extend beyond that period. The form of delivery contract under the Framework Agreements will be a bespoke form of TPC2005 Term Partnering Contract (as amended). Details of the contracts will be set out in the tender documents.
It is anticipated that the Authority shall instruct the works for the first two years of the Programme via a direct award equally between the top two-ranked Service Providers on the Framework. However, the Authority reserves the right to award works via a mini-competition between eligible Service Providers. Any work awarded by the Authority or any other contracting authorities shall be in accordance with the rules of the Framework Agreement. Work awarded under the Framework may be awarded subject to satisfactory performance by the Service Providers against pre-determined Key Performance Indicators. Further information will be set out in the tender documents.
The anticipated value of each of these work streams is as follows:
(i) Internal works 40,000,000 GBP
(ii) External works 50,000,000 GBP
(iii) Hidden Homes initiative 40,000,000 GBP
Therefore the total value of the Programme is expected to be between GBP 90,000,000 and GBP 130,000,000 in total.
The Authority is keen to pursue the government's sustainability agenda and to combat fuel poverty among residents. The Authority is also keen to explore other means of improving sustainability in their properties and therefore the tender documents will include opportunities to submit proposals for other "added-value" eco-commitments. The Service Providers may also be required to assist the Authority in the identification and delivery of energy saving initiatives and energy wide offers to the Authority's built assets.
The Authority also wishes to support people who are in long-term unemployment including young people not in education, employment or training and small and medium enterprises to ensure that there is specific capacity to deliver the service it requires and promote sustainability through its procurement. Therefore this contract may contain community benefit clauses as allowed within Regulation 39 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2006.
