Drainage Services for London Borough of Croydon Council

This lots will cover works required to empty properties by our Clients. Voids are usually time sensitive as the Client will want to get the property re-let to minimise loss of rental income. The Client will usually specify the work and advise of a timescale for which they need the work completed. They may require a specific work stream item to be completed, or request several types of work, dependent on their requirements.

Suppliers in these lots may specialise in various work streams such as:

• Scaffolding
• Excavation and Earthwork
• Demolition
• Fencing
• Drainage above and below ground
• Concrete work
• Masonry work
• Roofing
• Woodwork
• Metalwork
• Finishing works (Plastering, rendering, flooring, carpeting)
• Painting and Decorating
• Cleaning and Clearance
• Glazing
• Plumbing and Heating
• Electrical Installations
• General Property Maintenance
• General Builders
• Fire Alarms
• Security
• Fire Doors
• CCTV
• Warden Call

The above list is not exhaustive and we welcome Suppliers from all different work streams to join the DPS. We also welcome Suppliers that can offer more than one type of service.

Our Clients will advise of their requirements and the location(s) of the work when they wish to conduct a ‘mini competition’ and it is at this stage we will contact you to give you the opportunity to bid for the work. Additional checks will be conducted by SEC and the client at this stage to make sure Suppliers at suitable for the work required.

Our Clients may only wish to have individual work items completed on an adhoc basis, or they may wish to enter into a formal contract covering their requirements over a specified timescale. We are aiming to provide as much flexibility for both Suppliers and Clients alike by operating in this way. Where a formal contract is required to cover a period of time, we will provide this information at ‘mini competition’ stage.

It is anticipated that for this type of work, our Clients will provide their requirements along with a specification and a methodology for how they want the work priced. It is common nature for Voids that our Clients will utilise the National Housing Federation (NHF) Schedule of Rates to specify their work requirements. However, they may have their own bespoke Schedule of Rates for which they wish to specify and price the work. Alternatively they may have another method for specifying and pricing. This will only be determined at ‘mini competition’ stage and we will ensure you are provided with the relevant information to price the work.

Our Clients may wish to ask for additional information at ‘mini competition’ stage such as references, accreditations or some form of quality assessment, but this will only be determined by the Client at this stage.

The multidisciplinary lot is aimed to allow our clients to call off different types of work, all under one agreement. This may include any combination of responsive works, voids or planned works which have been described previously. It is envisaged any call offs via a ‘mini competition’ under this lot will be longer term arrangements with a specified timescale. These are likely to be formulated via a contract which will provide certainty for both parties in terms of operating procedures.

This will only be determined at ‘mini competition’ stage and SEC will make sure you have all of the information required at this stage for you to decide if you wish to bid for the work.
