Published requirement description

ALL DOCUMENTS AVAILBALE FROM WWW.ADVANTAGESWTENDERS.CO.UK

Supply of kitchen units and associated products and associated services to Advantage South West members.

The new framework will consist of two Lots. Applications are invited for Lot 1, Lot 2 or Both Lots.

The framework will be used for planned upgrades, responsive upgrades, void properties and in new build properties.

For each Lot Advantage South West is seeking to select, by a competitive tendering process, one company who will be awarded a 4 year Framework (1/1/23 – 31/12/26) from which Members will award Contracts for the supply of kitchen units and associated items to each Member (or their contractors). Advantage South West Members will enter into Contracts with the successful tenderer for their requirements that may be satisfied directly or via contractors. These Contracts will be for a maximum of 3 years and will be awarded during the term of the Framework. Members will be able to enter consecutively into more than one Contract for their requirements thus a successful company can supply for up to 6 years.

Additionally each Lot will contain a second company (and consequently has been advertised as a multi-supplier framework) which shall be in place as a “reserve” should the company selected as detailed in the paragraph above consistently fail to meet the performance requirements.

It will not be possible to obtain prices for every product that Members may wish to specify over the duration of the framework so please be aware that we will almost certainly require the successful tenderer to add similar products to the framework during its duration.
