TIERING The framework will consist of up to 6 contractors. This will include a 'Primary Tier' of up to 4 contractors and a 'Secondary Tier' of up to 2 contractors to provide contingency. Should less than 6 compliant tenders be received, then the council reserves the right to establish the framework with a lower number of contractors or tiers. DURATION The Council is aiming to have established the framework by September 2026. Once in place the framework will run for a duration of 4 years extendable by up to a further 2 years in increments to be agreed to a maximum term of 6 years. VALUE & PRICING The value of the framework is estimated to be in the range £60m - £120m over the maximum 6 years based upon Portsmouth City Council's Building Safety Programme for high, mid and low rise works from 2025 to 2030. The framework, although primarily for delivery of projects that cover high rise buildings with higher construction value works, will also cover approximately 30% of the Council's low - medium rise blocks in order to package up phases of work by consideration of geography and/or efficiencies, with the remaining 70% let via other arrangements. Whilst the project and pipeline of works are designed to provide a representation of the likely value of works procured through the framework, the actual values of call offs may vary, hence there is no minimum or maximum values for call-off contracts, and no commitment can be made in this respect. Although the call-off contract values may differ, the core work will be of a similar nature, i.e. of high complexity, requiring a high level of engagement from the contractor and requiring significant resident engagement. ESTABLISHMENT & PIPELINE The framework will be established via evaluation of tenders submitted for the Mill Gate House project. Based upon scoring achieved for the Mill Gate House project, the Council intends to allocate the following proposed pipelines of work. Each pipeline contains building safety remediation works to 3nr. higher risk buildings. The value of each pipeline varies from £7-9M, however, may be subject to change upon development of designs. Proposed groupings of pipelines of work & value are: Pipeline Package 1: Mill Gate House (1-76) (£5.5M) Omega House (1-80) (£2.5M) Grenville House (1-30) (£1M) Pipeline Package 2: Grafton Street (2-238) (£4M) Estella Road (1-189) (£4M) Darwin House (1-45) (£1M) Pipeline Package 3: Handsworth House (1-153) (£5M) Blackwood House (1-26) (£1M) Brisbane House (1-30) (£1M) Pipeline Package 4: Copperfield House (1-88) (£3M) Pickwick House (1-88) (£3M) Grosvenor House (1-54) (£1M) These pipelines will streamline the procurement of contra... > [Read full procurement scope and specification on Tenderline](https://tenderline.uk/tenders/building-safety-higher-risk-buildings-works-framework-agreement-ocds-h6vhtk-06b13e) ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** active - **CPV codes:** 31518200, 31625100, 31625200, 34928470, 35111500, 44112000 - **Delivery regions:** UKJ - **Delivery countries in notice:** GB - **Estimated Value:** £120,000,000 - **Contract Period:** 13/10/2026 to 13/10/2030 - **Renewal published:** yes ## Provenance and Official Sources - **Official Notice:** [Find a Tender notice](/out?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.find-tender.service.gov.uk%2FNotice%2F054491-2026) - **Last Source Update:** 2026-07-08T10:34:29.000Z - **This document generated:** 2026-10-25T05:04:54.111Z - **Machine API:** https://tenderline.uk/api/public/tenders/ocds-h6vhtk-06b13e
