TENDER FOR VOIDS REPAIRS WORK SOUTH KESTEVEN DISTRICT COUNCIL

South Kesteven District Council invited tenders to carry out void property repair and maintenance work to its housing stock which is circa 6000 dwellings.

The Council plans to employ two contractors to deliver the works across its district covering the towns of Grantham, Bourne, Stamford, The Deepings and surrounding villages.

Currently SKDC completes around 150 to 200 "major" work voids per annum.

It is envisaged that the works will be put into batches on a geographic basis where possible and subsequently passed to the contractor. This will be done on a rolling basis of contractor 1 then contractor 2 etc... to ensure the works are split fairly, however during periods of high demand, works may be passed to both contractors concurrently.

The annual spend for the void works will be split equally between the two contractors as far as practicable. (this is subject to satisfactory performance of each contractor)
