What is being bought

NHMF Frameworx is undertaking preliminary market engagement in relation to the proposed establishment of a dedicated Mechanical & Electrical (M&E) Framework for Northern Ireland. The proposed framework is intended to provide NHMF members, housing providers and other public sector organisations across Northern Ireland with a compliant and flexible route to market for the delivery of mechanical and electrical works, services and associated maintenance. It is currently anticipated that the framework will provide separate opportunities for domestic and commercial works, recognising the different technical requirements, competencies, accreditations and delivery models associated with each area. The final scope and lot structure have not yet been determined and will be informed by this preliminary market engagement. The framework may include, but is not limited to: Electrical - Including, but not limited to: Electrical installation works; Electrical testing, inspection and certification; Electrical maintenance and remedial works; Fixed wire testing; Portable Appliance Testing (PAT), including equipment within homes, communal facilities, offices and associated ICT/server equipment; Consumer unit and distribution board replacement; Electrical upgrades and rewiring; Landlord and communal electrical systems; and Associated electrical compliance works. Security and Life Support Systems - Including, but not limited to: CCTV systems; Door entry and access control systems; Automated gates and associated controls; Intercom systems; Life support and assistive technology systems; Installation, servicing, maintenance and repair; and Associated monitoring and control systems. Fire Safety Systems- Including, but not limited to: Fire alarm systems; Fire detection systems; Fire panels; Alarm sounders and associated warning systems; Portable firefighting equipment; Dry risers; Smoke control and smoke ventilation systems; Testing, servicing and maintenance; Remedial and replacement works; and Associated fire safety system compliance. Mechanical Systems - Including, but not limited to: Mechanical building services; Heating systems; Boilers and associated plant; Pumps and pumping systems; Ventilation and extraction systems; Hot and cold water systems; Mechanical plant and equipment; Controls and building management systems; Planned and preventative maintenance; Responsive repairs; and Associated testing, servicing and compliance works. Sprinkler Systems - Including, but not limited to: Sprinkler system installation; System upgrades and replacement; Inspection and testing; Planned servicing and maintenance; Responsive repairs; Remedial works; and Associated compliance requirements. Renewables and Low-Carbon Technologies - Including, but not limited to: Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems; Battery storage; Air source and ground source heat pumps; Low-carbon heating technologies; Electric vehicle charging infrastructure; Associated electrical infrastructure; Controls and monitoring systems; Installation, testing and commissioning; Servicing and maintenance; and Associated renewable energy and decarbonisation works. Multi-Disciplinary M&E A multi-disciplinary provision for contractors capable of delivering works across a number of mechanical and electrical disciplines. This may include planned programmes, responsive works, servicing and maintenance contracts requiring a coordinated M&E delivery solution. NHMF Frameworx is particularly keen to engage with Northern Ireland-based contractors, SMEs and specialist providers to understand the capability and capacity of the local supply chain and to ensure that the proposed framework structure provides appropriate opportunities for organisations of different sizes and specialisms. The purpose of the preliminary market engagement is to seek feedback from both contracting authorities and the supply market on matters including the proposed scope, lot structure, geographic coverage, contract values, delivery models and any barriers that could prevent suppliers from participating. Feedback received will be used to inform the development of the procurement strategy and tender documentation. Participation in this preliminary market engagement does not provide any advantage or disadvantage in any subsequent procurement process and does not represent any commitment by NHMF Frameworx or participating organisations to proceed with the procurement.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 09. The category anchor is Electricity (09310000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 091,1623 median · 38.9 average (426 of 1,162 with a bid count)5.7 average (481 of 1,162 with named award suppliers)Not published
Same buyer0Not publishedNot publishedNot published
Delivery region: UKN362 median · 29.3 average (21 of 36 with a bid count)6.6 average (25 of 36 with named award suppliers)Not published
Similar published value (0.5×–2×)3639 median · 39 average (1 of 36 with a bid count)3 average (1 of 36 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.

This may include planned programmes, responsive works, servicing and maintenance contracts requiring a coordinated M&E delivery solution.\nNHMF Frameworx is particularly keen to engage with Northern Ireland-based contractors, SMEs and specialist providers to understand the capability and capacity of the local supply chain and to ensure that the proposed framework structure provides appropriate opportunities for organisations of different sizes and specialisms.\nThe purpose of the preliminary market engagement is to seek feedback from both contracting authorities and the supply market on matters including the proposed scope, lot structure, geographic coverage, contract values, delivery models and any barriers that could prevent suppliers from participating.\nFeedback received will be used to inform the development of the procurement strategy and tender documentation.
