What is being bought6 lots · detail below
Published requirement descriptionMonmouthshire County Council & Gwent Police Region, acting as the Lead Authority, intends to establish a multi authority Framework Agreement for the provision of General Building Maintenance, Electrical Maintenance, and associated refurbishment works across 6 Lots. Each Lot will have up to five (5) ranked suppliers per lot each of which will be eligible to receive Call-Off Contracts via both Direct Award and Mini-Competition during the lifetime of the Framework. The maximum permitted value of any individual Call-Off Contract awarded under this Framework is £300,000 (exclusive of VAT). The Framework will support a collaborative arrangement between the following public sector bodies:
- Monmouthshire County Council & Gwent Police Region
- Torfaen County Borough Council
- Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council
The Framework will enable these Authorities to procure a wide range of reactive, planned, and preventative maintenance services across their non-domestic property portfolios, which typically include offices, schools, public buildings, community facilities, depots, and specialist estate assets.
- The authority expects to re-tender this requirement around 1 Mar 2030, 23:59 GMT.

Published description of the framework
The Framework will be operated as follows in relation to all Lots. A Potential Client may award a Call-Off Contract by undertaking a competitive selection process, inviting all Framework Contractors appointed to the relevant Lot to submit a tender, with award made to the most advantageous tender received. Alternatively, a Call-Off Contract may be awarded without further competition, using objective and transparent criteria established at framework stage and applied to the original tender submissions to determine the best value for money. In defined circumstances, as set out in the ITT. The Client may also award a Call-Off Contract directly to a Framework Contractor where it reasonably determines that a selection process is not required, provided the rationale is appropriately documented.

- Price
- Quality
- Community Wellbeing Benefit
- Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “General Building Maintenance Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 5 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.
