Lots and requirements (18)Procurement structure

18 lots · all with a published value · a supplier may bid for at most 9 and win at most 9 of them · same evaluation weights on every lot

Every one of these 6 lots carries the same published figure, £40,000,000: it is the framework's maximum for the whole notice, not each lot's own budget, and no share per lot is published. The cards below say ceiling above rather than repeat it.

Lot #1London - Work up to £5mAwarded UK, LondonPublished value£100,000,000

Work under this lot will cover all aspects of work in relation to Repairs and Empty Homes up to £5m in London. The option to include component replacements is also included.

The intent of this framework is to provide Authorised Users with a fully flexible service, that can be completely adapted to suit their requirements and includes a full up front scoping service and flexible IT support as required.

Additional services can also be included such as Call Centre provision. Additional information: Lots 1a, 2a, 3a, 4a, 5a, 6a, 7a, 8a and 9a are envisaged to be for SME Contractors

Suppliers can only bid for lots within the same value band.

E.g., a Supplier could bid for Lots 1a, 3a, 5a and 6a. A Supplier is not able to bid for 1a, 3b, 4b and 7a

Please refer to the Lot Bidding Form provided within the tender pack for additional information relating to Lot bidding criteria.

Delivery: UK, London
Extensions: Where works have a value that falls within the overlap between the upper and lower value band for each geographical region, e.g., lot 1a and 1b, the Authorised user has the option to procure through either lot (i.e., to invite Framework Suppliers from either lot 1a or lot 1b) For all lots, where there is insufficient interest to an expression of interest for any potential call off, the Authorised User reserves the right to approach Framework Suppliers on the adjacent lot. For example, if an expression of interest is placed under lot 1a, and there is insufficient interest expressed by Framework Suppliers in that lot, the Authorised User can then access lot 2a as an alternative. The definition of 'insufficient interest' will vary by Authorised User but will generally be defined as a minimum of three Suppliers expressing an interest for a mini-competition.Second stage: 6–12 candidates invited to tenderVariant bids: not allowed

Delivery: UK, North East, Yorkshire & Humber
Extensions: Where works have a value that falls within the overlap between the upper and lower value band for each geographical region, e.g., lot 1a and 1b, the Authorised user has the option to procure through either lot (i.e., to invite Framework Suppliers from either lot 1a or lot 1b) For all lots, where there is insufficient interest to an expression of interest for any potential call off, the Authorised User reserves the right to approach Framework Suppliers on the adjacent lot. For example, if an expression of interest is placed under lot 1a, and there is insufficient interest expressed by Framework Suppliers in that lot, the Authorised User can then access lot 2a as an alternative. The definition of 'insufficient interest' will vary by Authorised User but will generally be defined as a minimum of three Suppliers expressing an interest for a mini-competition.Second stage: 6–12 candidates invited to tenderVariant bids: not allowed

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Maintain Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 216 suppliers, not a single contract.

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