QTS are seeking a collaborative approach to the framework which is centred on a partnering ethos. Therefore, QTS wishes to establish a Framework Agreement for a period of four (4) years for minor works contractors who can deliver the required services for the varied programme. This lot will be the delivery vehicle for any minor capital works required by QTS for ongoing refurbishment, remodelling and maintenance.

For the Lot 1 Minor Works specification see Appendix C – Specification.

QTS envisage this lot will have a cumulative fee value of circa GBP 25m per annum over the 4-year term of the framework (circa GBP 100m in total).

These projects are diverse but can include legislative compliance works, M&E improvements, decoration, refurbishment etc.

It is expected that, where appropriate, works will be compliant with the Care Quality Commission Regulations 2009.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 70 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 7 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Quality Trusted Solutions (QTS) Find a Tender Service Minor Works…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 3 suppliers, not a single contract.

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