  • Suitability

    Refer to procurement documents.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Building Works Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 14 suppliers, not a single contract.

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

PSD did not, nor could not have anticipated, the additional volume of works that a refreshed estate strategy now presents to both enhance the estate, retain and refurbish buildings once identified for disposal, and to change many aspects of the estate to meet new initiatives Net Zero 2030 Mayoral pledges, with retrofitting the estate for major M&E and decarbonisation infrastructure, plus the roll-out of EV electric car charging infrastructure. These initiatives are also part of and included further changes as a results of the post Casey Review and Commissioner's Turnaround Plan. The current framework was planned and procured with reference to the following key documents: March 2021 - Governance business case sign off, with DMPC sign off by April 2021, setting out the scope, value and duration of the intended BWF. May 2021 - Contract Notice published February 2022 - Contract Award Notice published February 2022 - Commencement and on-boarding of supply chain for service delivery over a four-year framework duration. Significant decisions post procurement commencement the BWF include: October 2021 - UK Gov't publishes its NZC Strategy: Building Back Greener December 2021 - Commissioners response to and commitment to Mayoral targets, including NZC and the MPS's commitment to retrofit and energy efficiency on the MOPAC estates, to speed up London's progress to net zero by 2030, including a committed pipeline of buildings to retrofit by 2024. January 2022 - Mayor of London announces policy to make London net zero by 2030 April 2023 - The 2021 - 2025 Estate Strategy has been reviewed in order to ensure alignment with the Turnaround Plan, whilst delivering on the MPS's mission of more trust, less crime and high standards. This work will assist in setting the MPS up for success over the longer term and delivery of the 2023 Turnaround Plan and other estate requirements. 72(1)(c)(ii): The Framework will deliver more of the same and will increase the upper Lot limits in order to provide resilience and ensure delivery to the required timescales particularly in the case of NZC funding commitments. 72(1)(c)(iii): No price increase to the original framework contract value beyond the provisions provided for by these Regulations.
