Published requirement description

The Western Health and Social Care Trust (the Contracting Authority) wishes to appoint 2 Economic Operators to enter into frameworks for the provision of Minor Building Works and Building Maintenance Works (including reactive and planned maintenance) for the Western Trust Estate. The project is for the provision of Minor Works to properties within Western Health and Social Care Trust for a period of 4 years. The Contracting Authority is seeking to appoint a maximum of 4 nr Contractors to a framework (with 1 nr Contractor appointed to each of Lot 1, Lot 2, Lot 3, Lot 4 with Lots 3 and Lots 4 appointed as reserve. Lot 5 is for Trustwide mini competitions, all successful economic operators will be eligible for these work packages) under which the Contracting Authority may enter into Call-off Contracts for the provision of Minor Building Works and Building Maintenance Works. For the purposes of the Framework Agreement works are defined as any Building Maintenance or Minor Works Scheme with a cost of between £100.00 and £400,000.00. Minor works schemes may comprise new buildings, extensions to existing buildings, conversion/refurbishment of existing buildings, and may incorporate Mechanical and Electrical Building Services, directly employed labour, Civil Engineering, Roofing, Flooring, Windows, Painting, Glazing Works, and other related specialist works. It is a condition of the framework agreement that the Economic Operators shall make provision to have available any works required 24 hours per day and 365 days per year (including all weekends and all holiday periods).

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 90 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 9 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “WE 4308121 WHSCT FRAMEWORK FOR BUILDING MAINTENANCE AND BUILDING MINOR…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 5 suppliers, not a single contract.

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