Published requirement 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.

  • No preliminary market engagement: The authority is satisfied that the market is well established and that sufficient competition will be achieved through an open procedure.

Published description of the framework

This procurement will establish a multi-supplier framework agreement for the delivery of a wide range of works and services across multiple specialist lots. The framework will be used to appoint suitably qualified and experienced suppliers to provide services to meet the varying operational, compliance, maintenance and investment needs of the Contracting Authority and other Authorised Users. The framework will operate on a call-off basis, with individual requirements awarded either through award without further competition, or competitive selection process, depending on the nature, value and complexity of the requirement, and in accordance with the framework rules and the Procurement Act 2023. The specific award method, evaluation criteria and weightings applicable to each call-off will be set out in the relevant call-off documentation. The framework is structured across 44 lots, of which eight are optional value-split lots. Where lots are split by value threshold (for example, “up to £1.2m” and “over £1m”), suppliers may bid for one lot only within each split, and cannot be appointed to both parts of the same value-split lot. Suppliers appointed to the framework will not be guaranteed any volume or value of work. Call-off contracts may vary in size, duration and scope, and may include one-off projects, programmes of work, or term-based arrangements, depending on Authorised User requirements. The framework is intended to provide Authorised Users with a flexible, compliant and efficient route to market, enabling access to pre-vetted suppliers while retaining the ability to tailor call-off competitions to specific needs, including variations in quality and price weightings within the parameters set out in the framework documentation. Call-off contracts awarded under the framework will be governed by the terms and conditions of the framework agreement, together with any call-off-specific amendments or additional terms as set out in the call-off documentation.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “1362 - Community Housing - Planned Works Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 264 suppliers, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
