A2Dominion Housing Maintenance Joint Venture for the London Region

The A2Dominion Group is a group of registered providers which provides over 38,000 homes across London and southern England with circa 4,500 in the development pipeline. It offers a wide range of housing options, including general needs, housing for older people, supported housing, leasehold, shared ownership, market rented, student accommodation and key worker properties. A2D Homes Limited and A2D South Limited are the main asset holding subsidiaries of A2Dominion Group Limited. A2D Housing Options Limited also owns some of A2DG's properties.

A2DG sought tenders from suitably qualified and experienced suppliers to enter into a joint venture with A2DG and to manage the delivery of the Programme. A2DG anticipate that the joint venture will maintain at least 21,000 units (including c.17,750 homes of mixed tenure) in and around London. It is intended that present and future members of A2DG may utilise the contracts. The primary objective of the new arrangement will be to evolve A2DG's joint venture arrangements with a joint venture partner and transform the quality of services provided to customers.

The anticipated annual value of the joint venture arrangement is 16,700,000.00 GBP for the core services, which include responsive repairs, void refurbishment works, electrical testing and works resulting from fire risk assessments. Preventative maintenance works resulting from responsive repairs may also be undertaken.

A2DG will be able to provide services to the joint venture including back office services.

It is envisaged that the Partner will provide management services and various support services to the joint venture, which include, but are not limited to Health and Safety, HR and IT Solutions. The joint venture partner is also expected to take single-point responsibility for the delivery of the Programme and provide a duty of care in respect of the services.

The contracts have been entered into with the appointed provider under an initial period of 10 years and 6 months, with the option to extend up to a maximum duration of 26 years and 6 months. Additional information: The total Contract value of 575,000,000.00 is based on the maximum 26 years and 6 months and factors into account a level of growth, but excludes inflation over the term. The level of growth may include planned preventative works including cyclical decorations. The initial 10 years and 6 months equates to an approximate Contract value of 225,000,000.00.
