Framework Agreement for the provision of planned and reactive works
Authority: Simply Serve Ltd (Public body)·Consortium: 3 public authorities
What is being bought3 lots · detail below
Published requirement descriptionThis framework covers both reactive and planned maintenance services for drainage, flooring, and electrical systems across Somerset NHS Foundation Trust and Somerset Council sites. Contractors will deliver emergency call-outs, routine repairs, and scheduled works in compliance with the specification.
The framework will be split into the following three lots:
- Lot 1 - Planned and Reactive Drainage Works
- Lot 2 - Planned and Reactive Flooring Works
- Lot 3 - Planned and Reactive Electrical Works
The maximum total value of this framework is £10,000,000 excluding VAT. This figure is not an estimate of anticipated spend; it has been intentionally set at a higher level to ensure sufficient capacity for all potential call-off contracts over the full maximum framework term of eight years.
CPV: Drainage works · Electrical installation work · Floor laying and covering work

Published award criteria (2)
- Quality
- Price
- Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Framework Agreement for the provision of planned and reactive works” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 4 suppliers, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
