The Disabled Facilities Grant allows for:

  • adaptations of bathrooms for people who are unable to use a conventional shower or bath,
  • home improvement works including damp proofing, electrical works, plumbing and heating works, minor adaptations to kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, repair/renew/alter windows, doors and roof,
  • major adaptations works including property extensions, complex cases where major adaptions are made internally to a property to meet the client's needs,
  • ramps: permanent and temporary ramps to allow access into and out of the home.

Grants are awarded up to the maximum of 30 000 GBP. In some cases by exception the value may be exceeded and either additional funding is applied for or the difference is made up by the occupant of the property.

In these circumstances the additional funding will be determined prior to award of the contract.

20 000 GBP or via a mini competition over the value of 20 000 GBP.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 60 of 160 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “North East Lincolnshire Disabled Facilities Grant (DFG) Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

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