The framework will be used to source asbestos testing and consultancy services for the council's portfolio of 15,000 social housing properties and 900 corporate assets. The framework will also be accessible to Gosport Borough Council, Rushmoor Borough Council and Southampton City Council, however the council can provide no guarantees in respect of usage by these additional named Contracting Authorities. The council is targeting to have awarded the framework agreement by 13th November 2023 with commencement from 8th January 2024. Once established the framework agreement will run for a term of 4 years. Spend per annum via the framework agreement is estimated to be in the region of £450 - £500K. Call off contracts may be let which have terms which go beyond the framework term as long as they are awarded within the 4 year term of the framework. The highest scoring 5 suppliers will be appointed onto the framework agreement on a ranked basis. Concurrently with establishing the framework, a term service contract for standard services incorporating a schedule of rates will be awarded to the highest scoring supplier on the framework. The term service agreement will be used for services to sites which are of a consistent value, quantity and complexity and fall within agreed Schedule of Rates (See section II,2,4 for further details). The term service contract will run for 4 years with an option to extend in increments to be agreed for a further 2 years. Services procured through the term service contract is estimated at approximately £350,000 per annum. Individual orders are likely to be frequent with value varying between £250 - £5,000, however generally they will be in the lower value range. The contract will be let using the council's bespoke term service contract. Contractors allocated onto the framework will provide contingency for the term service contact on a ranked basis in case of any capacity or significant performance issues. In addition to the Term Service contract all contractors allocated onto the framework will be invited to participate in mini competitions for non-standard services. Non standard services will be characterised by being of a higher value in comparison to one off dwelling surveys, volume, complexity or do not fall within the agreed schedule of rates (See section II,2,4 for further details). Estimated value for non-standard services is approximately £150,000 per annum, approximately £100,000 of this demand is estimated to be from the council and £50,000 of demand from other named contracting authorities, The number of call offs are likely to be low across the framework term, with value expected to vary with no upper or lower limit, however generally will be between £5,000 - £50,000.
